It's one of those weeks, or two, where if all the things going on in this one week were spread out it would fill a month. It seems to happen like that every so often-and that's okay It reminds us to appreciate the quiet times and when you are busy time seems to fly.
Part of my wild and crazy week entails having child #3 home on spring break. I've always loved Thanksgiving, Christmas/winter and spring breaks! It is great to have one or all 3 kids home and those breaks always give me a chance to spoil, treat, bake, cook and do laundry, goof off, all which I love to do! Plus the time they are home seems to fly by, unfortunately. I should have called in "sick" one day just to hang out with him...but it's one of those weeks....but I do love having my kids home!
I like to think I'm halfway in between as far as being organizing. I go from feast to famine when when it comes to my dwelling places aka office/work space, home, etc. I love to have things neat and organized but you can only do so much in a mess and you have to live there, so there will be messes and disorganization along with the neatness. It's okay. It's life.
My crazy week includes this: Taking students to the local nursing home every day to read a chapter or two of Charlotte's Web book which is part of our One School One Book program this time. I'm part of that committee so this includes working together and getting things lined up and ready. I also take care of the school website page for OSOB as well as three other web pages...fun, fun! There is always something that needs to be updated on those pages!
Kids also seem to be gone to this, that, and the next thing this week. I am going to admit this, but it is hard to keep track of what kids I'm suppose to have and not suppose to have and where they are suppose to be.
I'm part of the 5th and 6th grade musical directors/staff. It means after and before school practices as well as creating the set and costumes....what I was thinking when I agreed to be part of this! Not really but it is fun and I get to work with a great bunch adults and kids!
My team will be delivering the butter braids they sold this week...they arrive tomorrow and they have to be kept frozen or they start to thaw and rise! Plus we sold these so people could use them for Easter breakfast...we'll see how many aren't delivered in a timely manner or by Good Friday!
My dance team will be hosting a Princess Prom for girls 12 and under and their dad/grandpa/uncle as part a fund raiser on Saturday evening. I'm a bit apprehensive about things but it will be fine. And I hope a lot of fun.
And finally to end the weekend my girls are dancing at a hockey game! We have new costumes, always exciting (if the rest of my order from 8 weeks ago gets here as promised) and a pretty cool new pom dance with some awesome music!! It will be a nice way to end a busy week and head right into another crazy busy week.
BUT Easter is right around the corner and we are taking the holiday on the road again....this should be fun!
Now I just need to get through two really busy, crazy weeks and keep my sanity!!
Positive thought of the day: Yesterday's warm, maybe closer to hot temps really spoiled us. Today's strong north wind and temps in the 40's quickly reminds us how fast things can change. But I love the every changing weather. It keeps things interesting!
