Holy October Batman!!!

So, here it is October 1st. Where did the summer go? Quite possibly in the trash with what was called a deck.

It's been crazy in our house. Soldier decided to start cutting the deck apart. With his new reciprocating saw. And guess where he left the broken blade? Where 2 year old boy hands can reach. Chunky's a climber. Duh.

Mad Hatter's got lots of new phrases. Picked up from school (those darned Kindergartners). She's cracking me up. Her outfits are spectacular. She's clean, completely dressed and ready to learn. Do I care if her skirt is green, tights are gray and shirt is orange? Nope. You outta see her get decked out for the mall. She wears more jewelry than a dollar store tramp. However, Mad Hatter pulls it off magnificently.

Personal training, while great, is beginning to kick my ass. I can barely wash myself and get dressed. My arms are experiencing muscle failure. And my abs....don't even go there. I pray I don't have to cough anytime soon.

Chunky's love for chocolate milk is going to come to an end very soon. And he will NOT be happy about it. Pull-ups are going to be a thing of the past as well. I know he'll be very unhappy about that. And I'm sure he'll find fun places to do his business to show me how unhappy he is.

Parking in one's own driveway, with the garage lights on and the front door about 50 feet from said driveway will not keep kids from trying to break into a car. Ask us how we spent our Tuesday evening. That young cop sure was pretty to look at.....

Looking out the windows checking on the cars every 10 minutes is becoming exhausting. Not sleeping much due to the house settling and me thinking it's someone breaking in is exhausting. Checking window and door locks about 5 times throughout the night is exhausting. Damn kids.

JB has her appointments set for Oct. 28-30. We should know for sure on the 30th if she's a full 100% match. Then everything gets sent to the transplant board, they discuss, approve and set the surgery date. JC wants it done by end of year since she's already met her yearly out of pocket. Her levels have gone down and I wouldn't be surprised if they make her wait until her levels spike and stay. That'll cause a lot of much unneeded drama.

Laundry still won't do itself. I'm not sure how there are 4 piles in the laundry room. Soldier wears a uniform to work every day. Kids wear one outfit a day and rarely wear jammies. I don't get it.

Work still must be done. I shouldn't be procrastinating. But I am. Everything hurts and I'm exhausted.
