can it be true???

Tomorrow is Monday and I can't wait??? Been a crazy week and weekend and I am looking forward to the normalcy of getting back to work.

To catch up on Lucas - thursday night was rough for him. He had a hard time sleeping but has been doing pretty good since. He hasn't had to take any pain pills other than Aleve during the day and taking the stiffer stuff at night.

Saturday, Jake and I met up with Shauna for a brief minute. We are taking our extra scrap supplies to a garage sale at a local store so was taking her the leftovers from our garage sale. Was great to see her even if it was just a short minute since our playdate for coffee was put off for friday.

Then we headed towards the music instrument rental place. But seemed like the traffic was just stopped. I called the store and they said the roads were closed for a local parade. Decided we would just try later then. Went home and worked for awhile. Tom and Jake went to the Nature Park to walk. When they got back, we tried the store again.

Oh boy - what was I thinking. A little tip - if your kids are taking band - go for the smaller instruments. They aren't as loud. Or take up so much space. We now have a trombone and a saxophone in this house! We don't have that big of house... These boys haven't played these before. Jake's trombone is about as big as he is! I have quickly learned that I have a new appreciation for doors and headphones.... Lucas found three notes today that were repeated for 2 hours!!!!!!!!!!!

Saturday afternoon, I took Lucas' to his football game. He was feeling up to it so we went for the second half. They played Sunset (arch rival) and won 12-0. Glad he could be down there for part of it anyway.

Today has been a little yard work early this am before it got too hot, some household chores, some work and just hanging at home. My parents and my brother stopped by for a bit on their way home from the beach. Made them lunch and they were on their way. Tom and Jake spent the day at the range so it was pretty quiet around here - aside from the sax... I wonder if my neighbors can hear that? I haven't heard many dogs howling yet so maybe it is muffled.

I needed some things from the store so Jake went with me. We hit Sonic for a cherry lime aide before wandering the grocery store. I just hate going to the store. Still didn't come home with any plans for dinners this week. Just need someone to do that chore for me and I would be a happy person...

Anyway, better get the boys to bed. Army Wives will be on soon. I am so glad to see they are back with new shows.

Have a good rest of the night and a good week.
Til next time.
