Just 3 weeks left...

until I start going back to work. :-(

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy what I do and I am really excited and very nervous about my new job, but going back to school after summer is always hard. I have gotten used to being around the girls all the time and knowing them better than ever and having more time than normal to do my thing (exercise, scrapbook, read). I will say that I am easing back into work this year, unlike last year when I had to jump in with both feet and scramble frantically to unpack my new room in a new school. I am going to spend 2-3 days and then have a 4 day weekend before I start back for real.

With only a few more weeks, I feel the need to cram lots into that time. I have scrapbooks to catch up (I was only a year behind in both girls books), shower invitations to finish for my cousin, and some assorted school stuff I have been putting off. Oh, I can't forget that I have to finish my new Harry Potter book! That is the cause of my lack of productivity in the past few days. Nate doesn't get it. "Why do you want to read that kids book? I just don't get it."

Today Shelby and I are making one more trip to Magic Waters to use my other free ticket with Meghan, Olivia, Kara, and Lucas. Hopefully I will get some cute pictures. I feel bad not taking Sarah, but she wouldn't enjoy it like Shelby does and I can't handle both of them safely in a place like that. Next year, maybe. I did get to spend some 1 on 1 time with Sarah last night though while Nate took Shelby to look at work and visit.

Sarah's not been quite herself these last few days. Cranky and more tired than normal, and she's not eating as well either. This child is usually a crazy eater. I am thinking that the teeth she's cutting could be the cause. I am going to give her another day or 2 before I call Dr. Geddes for advice.
