So...I know I'm a slacker

Yes...I know. I haven't even looked at this blog in over a month. It's not that I haven't wanted to. It's just simply...life.

It seems that I have been so busy in the past month that I don't have time to do a whole lot of sitting down and reflecting. Instead, I am running here and there, trying to get people where they need to be (including myself) on time. For example, let's look at yesterday. I woke up thinking it was going to be a fairly normal day. I got Kris to school and myself to work without a hitch. Then, I made it home in time to eat a late lunch, turn around to pick up Kris from school, run and errand to Target, head back to the school to pick up my nieces, take Avery to softball practice, take Maddie to her parents and pick up my mom, take my little cousin to his mom, pick up my uncle at the bus stop, take him to his appointment, grab a bite to eat, take my uncle back home, get home and get Kris to bed by 9pm. Whew! I'm tired just typing all of that.

Things aren't always quite that crazy, but it's still very busy. And, with Christmas being only 2 months away, it's bound to get even busier. Time to get started on the gift shopping.

The funny thing is...I love this time of year. I know that I will be constantly on the move, but I love the shopping for gifts, and I love the cool weather. This is my time of year.

I just hope that I can keep up. :o)
