Back in the swing of things!

Let me just set the stage for this story by telling you my church has a gym for it's members to workout in and I sometimes ( I use this term loosely) use it! I always said when everybody went to school all day I would start a strict workout routine. It is now the beginning of 2nd & 6th grade, and that hasn't even crossed my mind!

Ok yesterday was the first real taste of back to school life! Keep in mind it is the third day! First of all nobody was quite as excited to wake up and get to school early, there was dilly-dallying, and worst of all whining! All of those things aside I got everyone to school on time, and decided I would detail our house, which I remind you is for sale, so I try to keep it "show ready"! After a full 5 hours of cleaning, and getting a shower it's now 2:30 and I am now ready for Joycie to come home, and go to hip-hop! I am now feeling like a good mom having done all of this (with a happy attitude) and knowing the day is not nearly over. We grab a snack for the car, go to dance class come home, and within 30 minutes we eat dinner, pick up Tyler, and go to jr. choir practice and church. Stay with me I'm almost done! It is now 8:00 and we still have to do homework, as you can see there was no time to fit that in any earlier! It's officially way past bedtime 9:30 to be exact , and as I put the kids to bed Joycie asked me what I did while she was in church. I told her I also went to church, and with sheer disappointment she says "Oh, you should have worked out!",and Tyler says "Did you know my friend J*** doesn't like George W. Bush at all!" Well I don't have time to discuss these things tonight and now I'm tired, so I will eat some M&M's and go to bed!

calender Free

Hello everyone, and welcome to my first blog! I have chosen the name "What's in Store for me Today?!" because so far I live a calender free life. I also added an exclamation point and a question mark because I look forward to what my day will bring while at the same time I am not totally positive exactly what that is! I have always been a fly by the seat of my pants kind of girl, and my mom has bought me numerous calenders. (Which I initially get very excited about, and write in for about a week!) I went to a Lisa Whelchel conference at church a couple years ago, and she was filled with great ideas of things to do to make life easier! Once again motivated for a while, and still in awe, but back to my old ways!

I plan on writing little tidbits of my days of being a stay at home mom to two great kids, and a wife to a husband who by the way also thinks I should use a calender!
