 Too Much
Happy July, friends!!!
I must say that my birthday month is off to a shaky start. I have a huge list of interesting things that have happened or come up in the last two days. Big, potential changes coming down the pike for our family (thanks to my ex-husband changeing jobs). His life could be the deciding factor of whether our family has a summer vacation, or if my children have to switch schools in the next two weeks. All is up in the air. Strangely, I am not upset about it, but feel a bit like I am missing some footing at the moment. I am also having another bout of, "Wish I could quit my evening work." OOPS- sounded like I was a call girl, for just a moment. No, for those who might not know, I am a singer and a music inctructor. I would like to switch my teaching hours even further, so that performing and/or socializing is all that I am committed to at night, but I have to wait about two more years for that to happen. Contracts, SHMONtracts...

All of that aside, we had two of our three children wake up in the thunder storm late last night and attack our bed and sleep, followed by our Brinks home securtiy alarm going off- FULL BLAST- just after 7 o'clock this morning. Our middle child (who slept soundly through the storm) got up and began opening doors while our alarm was still set. ABRUPT waking, security phone calls on the home phone, as well as the cell phone, and police coming to the door. ALL before 7:40 AM. I must say that this will not be my most calm and relaxed day off.

Frazzled nerves aside, I managed to work out and take a shower without incident. WOW! (Note the sarcasm.)

I surely hope that everyone else is having a better day. Blessings to all of you.

Isn't that Brinks alarm obnoxious?! I know that's how it's supposed to be, but it scares my poor 2 year old to death, and she's pretty fearless when it comes to everything else, except flies, she hates flies for some reason.

Anyways, I hope everything with your ex and the kids' school gets figured out soon, and bravo to you for not letting it upset you.

Happy 4th of July, and just in case I don't happen to log in on the 24th, have a Happy Birthday!
