Finally, a fully nice weekend. Both days, beautiful and we had nothing going on! Finally took the time to take care of some yard work and some house work. I won’t lie, we’ve been slacking. Our schedule has been so busy that by the time we have a minute to do it, we’re not moving!
It gets hard. I get flustered more easily when we’re behind on home upkeep but I get flustered when I’ve been going all day and don’t get a chance to sit down and be as well. It felt good finally getting some done. It feels good to take a minute to sit down and write again as well. I’ve been slacking on that this past week, too. Between three full nights of volleyball, two nights of karate and just standard running around plus being swamped at work (it is always everything at once!), it’s been hard to keep up with where I’m supposed to be and when.
And, the volleyball team I was most worried about showed me why I was so worried about them. They have the potential and they hung in there for the most part, but they would compete and they let some easy plays go, get back in it and then let some easy plays go. Again and again. Practice went a little bit better on Friday after that and I hope, I really do, they realize what they’re up against.
It was a rough week but I’ll get into the swing of things. In between catching up with the house and yard work, I got to enjoy just sitting outside and relaxing. The weather was perfect and it was refreshing. Now we’re preparing for school to end this week as well. The kids will feel better with their busy schedules having the days off but I have a feeling it will just be more exhausting for me. Summer days aren’t the most exciting thing when both parents work.
But, now back to dinner. Chicken salads tonight. A nice refreshing dinner to end a nice productive, refreshing weekend. Until next time…
