Just isn’t enough. I appreciate everyone’s kind thoughts and condolences.
I took a break from blogging last week. I felt I had enough to do with work and the sudden passing of my uncle just wouldn’t allow me to concentrate. I knew that trying to blog, the drive back and forth to my father’s and my uncle’s where everyone would meet multiple times this last week, writing, housework, kids schedules, it would just all be too much so I let the one thing go that I felt I could.
I miss my uncle terribly right now and dear hubby I know, feels a little more lost in this world now too but if my uncle were here he would tell us to get busy – that we were burning daylight. (I am a firm believer that there is more to death than being gone so I do believe he is with me. However, that is for another conversation 
)
Needless to say I am behind and working like a crazy lady to catch up. In more ways than one it seems. So this last weekend, the kids and I worked on restraightening the house, laundry, and just general putting everything back in its place. A big thank you to my MIL (if she reads this) for coming out and doing all my dishes on Thursday night while we attended the showing – I needed that help more than anyone could know.
But now it’s time to get back on track right? I still have loads of writing to do and there doesn’t seem to be an end to it. Plus, Bug and I are getting ready for the DC trip and I am trying to plan for the weather and I am feeling a tad like Santa Claus right now as well. I am making lists and checking them twice- starting with the books I want to take a long with me. I am trying to locate my earphones for my mp3 player (and make sure it is stocked with music). I am debating on whether or not to take my laptop for the evenings back at the hotel… Bug thinks I should because he knows it can double as a portable DVD player as well. However the thought of leaving it in the hotel room worries me.
I am also trying to make sure that dear hubby and my mom in law also have a good schedule for the kiddos. There will be softball practice for Bebe plus her first game and a brownie meeting as well. Those four days need to run smoothly for them and I am in charge of making sure that happens (at least on the end of knowing where they need to be and when).
Lastly, I am working on posts and ideas for the week I am gone. I’ve worked on a few things in my head this week and I look forward to using them for some good blogging material while I am gone.
Aaahhh let the chaos of a new week begin.
