Pulling my hair out

I have officially had it! The kids are driving me CRAZY! They have been out of school for the last week for spring break. It has rained here for the last two days so they can't even go outside at all. I have told them at least 1,000 times to please quiet it down. (ok maybe only 750 times) But they are to the point when I tell them to quiet down I get some sort of cutsie answer. I don't want cute I want quiet. I will be so glad to send them off to school tomorrow. I really think that if they would admit it too that they are ready to go back to school as much as we are ready to send them back. I am just getting too old to put up with them on a 24 hour basis like this anymore. I know you all thought I was only about 29 but I am actually just a teenie bit older than that. Not much mind you but just a bit older. We have been going through things here today trying to sort things out for a yard sale next week and trying to pack things up that I want to keep and move with us. I think I am done for the night today. I still have one box I need to tape up and find a place to put it then I am going to sack out after dinner and a shower and watch a DVD. I borrowed one from Joy it is called 16 Blocks. It really looks like it is going to be pretty good so hope it is.

Packing Up

Well I have started to try to pack some of the things we have here in our room. I can't believe how much stuff I managed to stuff into the closet in this room. I kept saying that if I put anything else in there it was going to blow some day. Well I have some of the stuff packed and you just wait. I have had some of this stuff in the closet for several months now and as soon as I pack it up that will be the one thing that I wind up wanting to have at my finger tips. You see I am one of those OCD sort of people. I am a firm believer that there is a place for everything and everything should be in it's place. I guess I started doing that when I was a teenager. My Mother was one of those snoopy mother's and she would go through my things even my purse. So I always got into the habit of putting things away in a very specific way. That way I always knew when she had been snooping. I don't know why she didn't ever figure out that I never had anything in the house that I didn't want her to find. But guess she thought I would slip up somewhere. Well that has been the way I have been the rest of my life. When my daughters were younger I could always tell if they had used a bottle of my perfume and it took them quite a while to figure out how I did it. But, I think they finally figured it out.
