Saturday

On her way back from Muncie last night, Meg called to say that she was going to take an hour's detour to visit her friend Tiffany who was taking a getaway weekend on Michigan Street. (Tiff had a baby back in December.) One thing led to another (I knew it would!) and she stayed overnight with Tiff. She got home in time to shower and go to her activity today. NEXT weekend, she'd better be cleaning because I will be in Dayton for the annual Dayton Hamvention!

I am within two loads of having all of the laundry done for the week. It isn't all put away, yet...which is half the battle...but at least I have made a large dent.

Although it may seem that things should settle down since the school year is so near over, it ain't so! Ryan has a preschool "graduation" ceremony. Robin has a Field Day. I have an awards ceremony to prepare for at school, in between preparations for Dayton...and preparing for a sub for two days...plus getting all paperwork graded and recorded, and room cleanout, before it is all over.

All I really want out of life right now is order. I would like to be able to walk through the house without having to step over things. I would like to be able to find things because they are where they are supposed to be. I have told myself that, once I am retired, I will have time to take care of all of this. (I'm sure Grandma Judy told herself the same thing before she volunteered to take on the childcare deal this year.) 'Tis better...just not good. I just really need to school year to be over so I can regroup. Thankfully, this weekend has been sans stress.

We shall look forward to another day....God willing.
