I thought with the kids back in school, I would find more time to write, but that has not been the case. The kids completed their fifth day of school today, and I see no sign of things slowing down anytime soon. I haven't even had a day at home with nothing to do but "home" stuff. On the way back from the dump today I thought there may be an hour or so unaccounted for.... but instead of coming home to get a jump on dinner or put away laundry, I stopped in at my mom's and we had a diet coke with our feet up instead. There's time for that other stuff later.
Tonight I ran off for the first PTO meeting at the middle school - my former junior high, but that's another whole blog post. I had direct orders from Jason as I ran out the door that I was to sit quietly in the back, silently support my friends on the board, and not volunteer for anything. For the first time ever he told me that if I take anything more on, he was sure something will suffer. After a little pressing from me, I think he halfway admitted it would be his dinner, or the laundry, the lawn not getting mowed, or our time together that suffered, but I'm not 100% sure on that. I did leave the meeting with a short list of the needs they have in the copy room, the library and the school store though. Better defrost some more veggie burgers.
