Have I been so overwhelmed with it all that I have missed that many days of blogging? How negligent of me...do I apologize? Or would that seem egotistical in that I am assuming my oh-so-many fans can't live without my entries? Or do I just pretend I am sending these out to the universe of cyberspace...
Jeff is home for lunch, allowing some sanity time for me (much needed for some reason - does rain have that much negative power over me?) - all I hear are the chucking of bean bags and counting of points from the other room, brief squeel-y cheers and incessant "Daddy...Daddy...Daddy" as I imagine she pulls at his pant leg or shirt collar. Oops: there is the clomping sounds of toddler heads colliding and now the tears I can almost feel from here.
Construction of my front yard garden is on hold - the white-lidded engineers were about this morning staking, leaving me wondering if my new "burm" (or "bunker" as Jeff calls it) is about to be shredded by excavators. Did I just waste a lot of time and muscle? Alas...backyard gardens will now have to be the focus...which will be welcome relief to our family who, though enticed by the cow skulls at the rock pile, are fatiguing of the twice-daily chuck-stones-like-mad-and-pray-the-clunker-of-a-van-will-make-it-up-and-out-of-the-pit "adventure".
Hmmm...deep sigh. Goodbye moments of peace. Maybe I'll let the kids paint their own little mural on the living room walls???
