OK, so wow! Starting a blog was a lot easier than I expected. Now comes the hard part, actually keeping it up to date.
I've been meaning to do this for a long time, but have been intimidated by all the brilliant blogs I've seen out there. Since having children, my brain has sort of turned into a large chunk of moldy Swiss cheese! But I will do my best to convey my thoughts in a semi-intelligent manner.
The kids are currently in Idaho with my parents. I know they're having a ball playing in the dirt, tormenting the cats and exploring grandma's farm. I thought I would enjoy having a week to myself to unwind, relax and tie up all the last loose ends for the move. Boy was I ever wrong! I am BORED, lonely and weepy. I have a new appreciation for Ciaran and how he is handling this time away from all of us. Yesterday I checked out three books from the library. I've already finished two and I started the last one at about 9 pm last night. I can't sleep in the house when it's so quiet and lonely so I immerse myself in a book until I can't keep my eyes open anymore. I never thought I'd miss Emma bursting into our room at 3:00 am screaming, "I have to PEEEEE!"
I suppose I should relish this time to myself. Soon enough I'll be back in the thick of it daydreaming about my long lost peace and quiet.
