I could write a post that is filled, top to bottom with "CRAZY, CRAZY! CRAZY! CRAZY!!" and still not convey exactly how busy this last week has been, and how intense life has gotten lately.
This last week I had to make new child care arrangements, which is a frightening prospect for even the best of us, and the rest of us can be floored by it. I've created a pile of stress for me by also looking into getting out of this apartment and into a real live house that we can grow to fill. Just between those two life seems crazy, but it doesn't end with that, I'm stressing about work, and about being there for the children.
This last week the kids and I spent all day Saturday doing house searching… and Friday we went exploring houses on our own. I finished the juice fast, and we've been trying to play catch up on the stuff that they are doing for the end of school. There are only so many hours in a day and it seems like we spend most of them playing catch up… even when we're ahead of the game.
We did find a new house, this one is brand new, it doesn't have ALL the bells and whistles, but it has enough of them that it can still play the song, and the song that is playing is one of finally having a space where we can just sit back and relax. (Of course that time isn't yet. I didn't even get home from work and filling out the paperwork and everything until nearly ten o-clock. (that's a long time to be wearing a tie!)
How was your week?
