Today is a Special Day.

I have been composing my blogs in Word and then copying them here....but then I don't post very often, so I'm going to try and post directly to my blog, and then updates/stories will be a little more frequent.

Today is a special day for a couple of reasons. First off, it is hubby's birthday. I won't tell you how old he is, just that on the downward slide toward 40. ;) Second, he's on the road today...but it's the last trip of the Spring, so he won't be working so much after today (he called around lunch to say he'd be home about 9pm, he left at 5:30 am so he won't even get the see the kids on his birthday). But, it's the last time, so we can handle it.

Yesterday I took the kids to buy hubby a birthday present while he was at baseball, they were all excited when we got in the van, and for most of the drive. That is, until we passed the gym. The girls thought we were headed to the gym, and boy were they bummed to find out we weren't going there. Imagine...I'm not the only one who misses going to the gym. So, I promised to take them next week (Tuesday is their regular night to go with us). My parent's have agreed to pick up an evening and they'll be taking the kids on Mondays and Thursdays for a little while so we're going to get back into the routine next week.

Things have been crazy busy here, this week brought many appointments (eyes, doctors, dentists) and everyone has received a clean bill of health. Plus, we're moving things around at the office, so a lot of "spring cleaning" going on. At home, our neighbors are having a yard sale and invited everyone to join them. I'm hoping to pull a few things out tonight after the kids are in bed, before hubby gets home. If people are already going to be in the neighborhood with money, I might as well have my stuff out there too.

I'll let you know how it goes.
