So. An update.

I’m SURE you’ve been wondering exactly what the hell’s been going on in my world besides all this corrupted database/wonky ass domain redirect bullshit. And, I’m gonna tell ya.

Okay. The kids! They started Kindergarten. I mentioned that, but I failed to mention how completely stressed out I was about all of it because I was doing everything all by my lonesome, while Paul was off being a big, bad biker. I got the kids registered at their new school, bought school supplies, took the kids to orientation, washed and hung all their school clothes, and then took them to their first day of kindergarten by myself. (Well, with Kayley.)

Walking into school with sissy.

Looking back now, I’m thinking, “So?” but at the time, I was freaking the fuck out. I really don’t know why. Paul goes to Sturgis every year, and I do FINE while he’s gone. One year, I even threw a party! The infamous Mommy’s Happy Hour Playdate of 2006. Last year, I kept the kids in their good routine, and even got up early every day. Go, me. But this time, I just couldn’t hang, man. I don’t know why. I have no idea what my deal was. I was kind of struck down by some serious anxiety, though.

All day kindergarten is kicking my ass.

And the asses of my children as well. Getting up at the o’dark thirty is TORTURE! The kids are so tired after being at school all day, they’re cranky and grouchy all evening. I’m dying. Dying, I tell you! But, it’s wonderful! The kids LOVE their new school and I love it too. I want to tell you all about it, but I just can’t bring myself to sit in front of this computer right now, when it’s Saturday and there’s a perfectly good couch for me to lie on right over there —-> Nope, can’t do it. Mama’s too tired!

But I will tonight. I’ll tell you all the wonderful and amazing things about their new school and how it’s rocking our socks off and how Pablo’s whole life is going to change as a result of going here. It’s all good, man.

In the mean time, I’ll leave you with this picture I took last night of the girls, because it cracks me up!
