Random Tidbits of my Life
I've had so much going on but not much available time to write about it. So, here's the short short version of my life.
1. The roofers will be here tomorrow. 8am. Thank goodness.
2. My stepmom came down on Sunday and we had a great visit. I don't see her too much so I'm glad we spent some time together. She had never been to Long Beach Island so I drove her down to check it out.
3. Cement backerboard is really heavy and a pain in the ass to carry. One of the guys in Home Depot helped Husband load the cart. We also lucked out when another guy in the parking lot helped Husband load the backerboard in the back of the truck.
4. The PTA family fun night is fast approaching. I am somewhat organized and I am lucky enough to have a few people helping me out. I can definitely point out things that will be done differently for the next event.
5. I've also been in Youngest's class, helping the kindergarteners with their writing. It was a lot of fun. Five year olds are a lot of fun.
6. This Friday, I will be spending my evening at the local community center for a Girl Scout Halloween dance. I'll be there from 530pm until 930pm. The Daisy troop will be there during the 6pm-730pm session and the Junior troop has the later session from 745pm-915pm. Oy.
7. Also, this Friday will be the first anniversary of my father's death. I miss him so very much. I figured he would appreciate me spending the evening out with his grandaughters and the other Girl Scouts instead of being home and crying. So, I'll do my best at keeping my chin up and having fun with the girls.
Well, I'm off to bed. I'm pooped.

Hugs, thoughts and prayers for you, as always. Allow yourself to get lost having fun with the girls on Friday...you are right, that's exactly what your dad would've wanted. He'll enjoy watching all of you from above.
