Wow time really flew by this weekend and I just can’t even fathom that Thanksgiving is just days away now.  Where did the time go?? 

I swear, sometimes I wake up, look at Ethan, and wonder if I’ve been asleep for a year.  Last week he had a Cub Scout meeting and wore his uniform.  Holy Cow!  He looks like a little man in that thing.  I’m proud and sad at the same time.  I mean I can remember those sleepless nights rocking him back and forth, and gads, the projectile vomiting that kid did.  YUCK!  I remember just telling myself, if I can just get through this it will be better tomorrow.  Ack, now I want some of that time in the rocking chair back.  The pukefest, uhh, I can do without that, but everything else, well, I’d give just about anything for a moment of it back.  :(  Now he’s a little man… things just move so fast!  You blink and it’s gone.  I need to post of photo of him in the uniform and you’ll see what I mean.

I have big plans for tomorrow…  Class prep!  I’ll be kitting out the card classes I have coming up both here locally and online at MyCreativeClassroom.com.  I’d like to kick it all out in a day, but I don’t think thats going to happen.  Usually it takes a few days and that’s with my Mom offering to mass cut things or score if I need her to.  Cross your fingers and wish me luck.  Shelby is sick and CRABBY, so she isn’t getting along with anyone around here.  A crabby Shelby makes for a long and very loud day!!

Sadly, my Mom isn’t home and really I’m all around lost and lonely without her.  She went to Florida to see her Mother who just had surgery.  I don’t have a relationship with her, but I understand that my Mom needed to go.  Regardless, that doesn’t stop me from missing her terribly.  I swear I talk to her everyday maybe a bazillion times.  She lives less than a mile away and I probably see her everyday too.  It’s hard to go cold turkey, lol.  Anyway, I’m in a funk cuz I miss my Mommy!  She isn’t coming back until Thanksgiving evening so we aren’t doing Thanksgiving festivities this year with my family. 

Being my Mom won’t be here for the holiday, I guess we will be stopping at Denny’s parents for a bit (which I just found out about today) and then I’m going to spend the rest of my day with Michelle, being thankful for her friendship.

See how mushy and sappy I can be when given the chance???
