I have been remiss in posting because I don't know what to tell you all. Our summer has been well....quick, busy, good, fun. I don't know how to put it in words.
Right now, I am feeling very anxious and I don't know why. I have been feeling that way for a few days now. I think there is change in the air. I don't mean to sound ominous but I can't explain the way I feel. I also think that is has to do with hormones too. I feel this way sometimes....I will leave it at that.....
Right now, I am alone. The hubby and kiddos are at an amusement park for the day with the student ministry. It is nasty humid outside...maybe that explains my mood too....the hubby has called me and says that our son is having a GREAT time! He has seen our daughter with about 10 of her friends once.
Our lives are changing. This summer, we have been without kids so much. It is weird! It is a preview of things to come. As much as we enjoy each other's company and time alone together, it is weird becuase my mommy role has taken on a different meaning. It feels natural but yet weird at the same time.
I have a new found reality show....Cash Cab on the discovery channel! This NYC cabby picks up people and asks trivia questions and then they win cash or not if they get 3 strikes! While we were in NYC, I tried very hard to find cab # 1G12. No such luck--I mean how hard could it be with 15,000 cabs!!!??
Alex played some competitive basketball this summer and loved it. So he is all about the basketball now....basketball in the livng room, in the front hallway, in his room.....ugh! We have a hoop in the back yard!
By the way, did you all know that Alex HATES to ride a bicycle? I have done everything I can to bribe him! No such luck!
Alex has pimples!!! oh my! I have noticed the attitude is very teen like now but I am not readyfor the body to change! WE took him shoe shopping for new baskeball shoes. His last pair of shoes--8.5. His new shoes---10.5!!!! Opps!
Chelsea has volleyball tryouts tomorrow. I am nervous about that. I just want her to do her best no matter what happens!
WE have had major car trouble this summer. I have spent a good amount of the summer with out a/c!!! It has also been one of the hottest summers in 10 years! Lovely!!! Get it fixed you say?! What a good idea EXCEPT for the fact that our regular mechanic AND the dealership can't figure out why it is overheating!
I hate buying new cars! I love getting them but hate buying them. We have not had a car payment in 3 years!!! I don't want one now!!! but alas, it looks like I will get one....any suggestions?
Well that is enough of my rambling...sorry but again, I had nothing specific to say! Just felt the pressure to make a post!

I hate riding bicycles too! But Sam convinced me to buy one at a garage sale this summer. I'm trying, but I really am on the verge of a panic attack every time I ride.
I think I'll stick with swimming laps in the pool after this!
Sorry about the car trouble...we bought our Exterra last summer and love it! Typically, the end of the month is the best time to buy! And you're coming up on the end of the year which is also not a bad time to buy since the dealers need to make room for those 2007 models. If you need more, just ask Sammie...he seems to know a lot about buying cars.
I hear yah about basketball - oh my! Brady is currently playing basketball in the beach house with a beach ball basketball!! He plays basketball anywhere and everywhere with or without a basketball.
I am Peg from Blessed Beyond Belief. I came across your blog and I can totally relate to your last post. My boys started Middle School and High School this year. I feel like I'm not needed as much anymore - trying to figure out what I am to be doing now.
Nice to meet you!
Hi :)
