It's been 2 weeks since I last posted...
I've been finding it hard to blog because it feels like we do the same thing every day and every week since September started...
Public school, homeschool, soccer, regular shift for my husband, off duty work for him too, soccer, homework, church, meetings, appointments....
Repeat... And again...
You get the idea...
How exciting can that be to read about?
With all of those things going on each week, things can get a little crazy around here. There have been periods of time due to my husband's schedule where we haven't seen him for more than 30 minutes in over 48 hours. And we all survived! It was a good preview of what October could be once he starts working off duty at our State Fair.
To ADD to the craziness of the above list of things going on in our family in the fall, we add several more things in October: 2 soccer tournaments, our anniversary, and our youngest's birthday (and first with our family...and during the Fair).
But this schedule is really not that much different from many other families. We are ALL busy...
EVERY fall our family experiences this same craziness...
EVERY winter we have Thanksgiving, Christmas, 2 kids' birthdays and then my husband's birthday...
EVERY spring we get a little break from the busy and look forward to finishing out the school year...
EVERY summer we get a little time to rest and plan for the upcoming school year...
And then there we go again...
I'm not complaining, REALLY I'm not!
I LOVE soccer season, even though we rarely get to sit down to eat dinner together as a family.
I'm used to the off duty work that piles on in the fall for my husband. He is at the point in his career where he has little opportunity to work off duty during the year, so we don't turn down the chance to work it in the fall, even if it does mean adding in an extra week's worth of work every month.
So, that is the routine, boring, same as last month update from our family! And to be honest, I kind of like it this way! ;)
