Geesh, it's Monday Again?

Wow, the weekend FLEW by! Before you know it the girls will be back in school. I'm counting the hours! :)

Not sure what we're up to today. I should finish the book I'm reading so we can hit the library. Cora found a few Babysitter's Club books at a garage sale this weekend, so she's set for a while.

Anyone wanna come help me clean my computer room? I'm not quite sure how it happened, but it's a flippin' MESS. Wow. I guess I'm allowed th have one room, right? :) That's my project for the day; to get this room halfway presentable.

Gotta go get my books for the fall semester today or tomorrow. I'll be taking four classes. Not quite full time, but enough to keep me entirely occupied and sufficiently stressed out. I'll be up late a lot studying. It's really hard to study with two monster kids in the house...and when they're home from school, I'll want to hang out with them a bit. Both girls will be in school full time, so I'll miss 'em terribly!

Oh yeah! My layout was picked at The Digi Chick as Layout Of The Day 8/12. Pretty freakin' cool!!!



Got my Layout Blueprints book in Saturday night. It's really a great book! I can see that I'm going to use the sketches in it a lot.

Alright...enough rambling for one day. Later!

My children are officially MONSTERS!

Oh man, I can't even believe what they did last night. Andrew took them to the bow club. We're there at least 4 times a week, so they KNOW how to behave. Andrew was outside shooting on the outdoor range. The girls were inside. By the candy shelf. THROWING the CANDY down the inside range!!!! WTF??? I was SO livid after Andrew told me that, I couldn't see straight. The worst part was, there was someone in the building while they were doing this. Oh man. They got in HUGE trouble. They're now grounded forever, and will no longer be allowed to be alone in the bow club. They get to sit with me the ENTIRE day I'm there on Tuesdays and Wednesdays instead of playing on the playground with the other kids. Ugh. I should send them to military school.

Anyway...while they were vandalizing the bow club, I was at a production of Once Upon A Mattress. VERY funny.

Welp, I'm off here for now. Just wanted to vent about my devil children.
