lyfe in general

No, I didn't forget to use my spell checker.. I guess this is my feeble attempt to fit in with the "cool kids" of today in blogging. I get text messages that honestly, I have to read about 10 times before I understand what they are trying to tell me. It reminds me of the licence plate game I used to play with my Mom when I was a kid on long car rides.

It occurred to me the other day that I am now, truly, an adult. How is that possible? I take my son to kindergarten and although I went to school quite far from here, the feel is the same and I think "wasn't I JUST here?" Wasn't it just a short time ago I was being driven to school with my new backpack?

Time seems to go sooo sloooooooowly when we are kids. The summer seemed like it was a year in itself. Now I sneeze and 4 years have gone by.

My oldest, as I have stated, has started kindergarten and is gone from 8-3 everyday and my youngest goes to pre-school M-F from 9-11. There is 2 hours where, if I'm not babysitting, I HAVE NO KIDS. I thought this would be awesome, I could get a ton done or perhaps stare at the wall uninterrupted for the two hours. Instead, I find the house eerily quiet and me turning on "A baby story" on TLC, remembering back to the days this all seemed so far away. Anyone else ever get concerned in our line of work about job security? I mean, next year there will be no kids to watch during the day. I have been home since I became pregnant with my oldest due to complications and I'll admit.. the idea of my title of SAHM not existing anymore scares the crud outta me.
