I am back

I wonder if anybody missed me? Bet cha didn't. But Randy and I were gone for a couple of days. We have some friends that took pity on us and we went to spend the weekend with them. They know that a person of our age can only live in a house with 5 children and 3 other adults. OK 2 other adults and 1 person that is of adult age but not really and adult. But anyway, our friends thought we needed a rest and a break and we really did. We had a very good time and really didn't do anything all weekend just kind of rested and didn't hear any kids yell, scream and fight with each other. But all kidding aside we had a good weekend and came home feeling rested and relaxed and by the time dinner was over I was ready to go someplace else for another time of rest and peace and quiet. Right now as I type the baby is across the hall crying because she can't do just what she wants to do.

Let there be peace

Well Joy has the day off today so she took her three children plus the "3 Year Old" someplace today. I have no idea where they are going and to be honest I really don't care. All I know is that there is now quiet and calm in the house. The only child home is the 18 month old and she is taking a nap right now. So, everything is pretty quiet in the house for probably most of the day. I am also very excited because today is the last day of the school holiday break. YIPEE!!!!!

Hoping for a Quiet Day!

Today I woke up, (which is always a good thing to do) cause it sure beats not waking up. I was hoping for a very quiet day since it is cloudy and looks like it is going to be a rainy day out. But... how do you have a quiet day when you are 1 of 11 people living in the house. Well, you don't so the next best thing to do is to put your earphones on and turn on your MP3 player and turn the volume up full blast and listen to your favorite music. But in thinking about it if you have Wynton Marsalis blasting at full volume in your ears does that constitute as a quiet day or is that an oxymoron? Oh well, for me this is the best it is going to get.
