Time Flies......

Okay, I know that it has been since August since I have posted on here. But as the title says "Time Flies" especially when I am working, taking care of the boys, the house, and my marriage (unfortunately that is probably the order in which these things are taken care of). I can't decide about this blog- whether I want to truly commit to doing it, what exactly I want to share on it, what it's purpose is, do I want a lot of people reading it, etc. etc.....

There are several topics I could write about, here they are in no particular order with no particular explanation:

• my job
• I joined Weight Watchers two weeks before Thanksgiving(I know a wacky time to join) and I have lost almost 10 pounds so far.
• I have slacked off on W.W. these past two weeks so I probably have gained weight although our scales say I haven't. This is a disadvantage of going to meetings at work if you are a teacher and have a 2 week break.
• My vacation and our wonderful Christmas.
• Santa brought Guitar Hero for the boys for Christmas, who knew the 34 year old boy of the house would enjoy it the most!
• I am not good at Guitar Hero, especially if there are any distractions. I bet having rhythm would help me too.
• Carson got a real guitar from Uncle Gerald and Aunt Sherri. He loves it! But there goes our incentive for using the potty chair. Hopefully, a piano with a microphone will work.
• We took Jackson to the eye doctor yesterday, apparently he cannot see anything far away. It was so bad that at first I thought that he was fooling the nurse but apparently not. Spiderman glasses have been ordered hopefully he will like seeing so much that he won't care about what the other kids think.
• My 72 year old mother has a MySpace page. What is the deal with that?
• My mother also is very sick with the flu right now.
• Carson will be three in three days.
• My mother will also have her birthday on the same day as Carson.
• This morning Marc proclaimed "Soon it will be 2008, the year we get our act together!", he made the same proclamation about 2007 and it lasted maybe 5 days.
• I have a ton of books to read. I got 4 new fiction books and two cookbooks for Christmas. These are in addition to the stack of 12 books that I have on my desk to pursue. Good thing I LOVE to read, it is just finding the time to do so.
• Church-why is it the way it is?
• My spiritual life- needs help.
• Trust.
• Why can't I seem to find a female Christian friend to bond with? Do I really lack social skills? or is it something else? I think effort has a lot to do with it.
• People with negative attitudes bring me down. I know I used to be one of these people hopefully I am not now or at least I am trying not to be.
• I need to make a plan for the year(plan = resolutions) but I could dig out the ones from years past because I say the same thing every year.

• Marc and I have not been on a date for a few weeks, we lack a trusting, brave sitter who would enjoy our rambunctious boys. I think alone time with your spouse is a essential part of a good marriage.
• Three spouses of teachers/friends that I work with got the the BIG V in the last month. It was interesting hearing the details of the procedure. From shaving, to smells, jocks, sweats, and frozen peas, it makes me a little nervous for my dear sweet Marcus when his time comes.
  

Obviously, there are things to write about. It is just deciding to do it. I better go be productive. I know I say that time is flying and it is but I don't want it to stop some day and have nothing to remember but the idea of capturing it. Later.....
