H got in this am, just in time to shower, and take them with me (tradition). They go to a Lutheran School - two campuses... S12 is now in 7th grade, which is at the high school (Jr High area). And, S9 is in 4th grade, at the elementary.
D18 graduated from the high school last year, just in time to NOT be of assistance in taking S12 to the high school! So, I get to shuttle shuttle shuttle my rear off mornings and afternoons. Actually, just remembered S12 has football after school, so that will lesson the chaos!
Emails into my customers to see their availability on Tuesday or Wednesday of next week. I can be out there by 9:45, and be ready for lunch by 11:30 or so. Now, we just need them to be in and free in MY timeframe! Ha!
Interviewing Field Service/Automation Engineers today, and taking D18's best boy friend to lunch (leaving for SIU tomorrow). The, of course, football practice pick-up, soccer training, etc... BlahBlahBlah!
The cleaning ladies come today, though! Yea! Since I've been so busy my house looks like hel!! Had to spend an hour and a half picking up so they could clean! I'm pretty anal, too, so this is a BAD 180 for me!
I know your D19 is in school. Is your D17 a Senior? Does she have her homecoming date/dress yet? LOL I remember D18 having that stuff almost secured by week 2 of the school year. Hilarious. Important stuff to her... Maybe that's why she had to stay home two semesters, instead of going away. No time to study when you go to THREE PROMS!
And, how about your boys? My boys are sweethearts. S12 is just starting to become an eye roller, but his core is just good and sweet. S9 is a sarcastic, witty little dude, but is SO good to his Mommy!!
Have a good day at your school! I truly admire teachers. Lowest paid, most important job ever created. You truly do it out of love!
PS - Thanks for the prayers! You must be Lutheran, too, if your Pastor is female and drinks Vodka!

The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.
