I really haven't been keeping up on my blogging very well. It seems we hit the ground running out here and haven't stopped since. I am so sick tonight and sitting at work just basically considering myself a warm body tonight. There really isn't anyone to cover me because there are only a few staff members here. I figured since I work at a lodge, I would find an empty room tonight and just relax. I knew sickness was headed our way when Max started school....it always happens that way...Germy little kids! Things are going well, we are starting to get the hang of things out here. I feel a bit overwhelmed at times due to all the demands I have to meet, but knowing there is an end in site to some of my obligations gives me hope of things slowing down a bit. I am in my third class in my doctoral program and almost fourth. It has gone fairly well, but it is hard to find time to do things as well as I would like to. Sometimes I wonder if achieving the simple life isn't really that simple after all. But we are working out the kinks slowly but surely. The boys room is almost complete, I am just working on little details like finishing painting trim and paint touch ups. We also need to finish the base boards and their bathroom, but it looks so cute. I don't want to show before and afters until we are completely done, so hopefully soon! The boys are doing great, depsite just getting over colds. I can't believe how fast time flies and how big they are both getting. I love being a Mom and I am so thankful for them. Jason has been busy and is happy now that he has a work truck instead of using our honda pilot for work. I love my husband dearly, but I don't like sharing a car with him and all his construction stuff. Today Max had a soccer game, he did really well, it is fun to see how the kids progress throughout the season. We are also signing Max up for Taekwando(or however it is spelled) we thought a little self defense never hurt anyone-no pun intended...Max is excited about that. Well I better get some work done, but I hope everyone is doing well!
