It's been awhile

Things are well, hectic in my life. I seem to be running somewhere all the time.

Keith has good days and bad days. He still LOVES school (Thank God!). They had vision screenings a while ago and he was referred to an optometrist. We went and he's pretty farsighted in his right eye. So now he has glasses, which hasn't been too bad. He doesn't really mind them.

Caleb.......oh boy. What a pisser. He is on the go all. the. time. And into something all the time. He loves to play with Keith but he can't always do what Keith is doing and Keith gets frustrated because Caleb won't leave him alone. *sigh* It seems all I say is "Caleb, NO!" The past 4 or 5 days, Caleb has decided to either get up early in the morning or during the night. This morning he was up at 2:20 am. I did get him to go back to sleep with me on the couch around 4 am. This makes for a very tired Mommy on top of this awful cold I've had for a month.

Brian has not been a whole lot of help lately. I don't know what caused the change. He used to do dishes sometimes, he used to do laundry, he used to vaccuum. Nothing now. He gets home from work, eats dinner and watches TV. Right now, I have a FULL sink of dirty dishes. I'm just waiting for him to say something about them. Cause I'm waiting for him to do them.

So far this week, he has not been home before 7 pm. On Monday, it was 7 when he got home. He had stopped at the bowling alley to pick out a new bowling ball that his mother is buying him. I, on the other hand, took Keith to the eye doctor as soon as he got home from school. Which is an hour trip, one way. So I got back around 6:45 and had to find dinner for Keith and I before I had to be at the fire hall at 7:15.

Last night, the boys and Brian had hair cut appointments at 5 pm. So as soon as Keith got off the bus, we took off. Brian met us there. After they got their haircuts, Brian had to go get his new bowling ball drilled. I took the boys home, got dinner, played, got them both in bed. Brian got home at 8:30 pm. Tonight he bowls.

*sigh* I feel like a complete lunatic most days. I have no patience, I'm exhausted, I really feel like I'm losing my mind.
