Books and Coffee
Friday, July 31, 2009
My life has been crazy lately and yet not really. I don't really understand it, actually. It seems as if I have no time for anything. I'm not blogging like I usually do, but that might not be a bad thing; for a while there I was blogging A LOT!
So settle in with your coffee (or other beverage of choice) and have a visit. You can read about our dates this week here.
I haven't had time to read this week. I've been busy preparing for Simply Sensational Divas Review Launch Party. At this point we have about 20 giveaways and 10 or more products / books being reviewed throughout the month of August. I am only doing part of the work required to get this party off the ground and I am feeling a little overwhelmed, but so very excited. Please stop by and check us out, enter some giveaways and share some linky love.
This coming week is pretty empty so far. I mean, it never takes long to fill up, but there is nothing written on the calendar so far. That's a good thing. I need to catch up on some housework and some sleep. I don't wanna get what DH has. He's so sick. And up until today, he's been doing the laundry for me. I need to get back on that. Next week is the start of a new month so Flylady starts in Zone 1 again. Zone 1 is the entrance and porch area. It needs my attention, badly! Oh, and I need to start the new month of Regina Leed's One Year to an Organized Life. I need to find a focus for the month and post about that as well as recap last month. (Did I have a focus last month? I don't feel like I focused on ANYTHING last month!!)
You'd think that by now, we'd have a good routine going. J's been off work now for 7 months. Well, I guess we do have a good routine going, but it is very very different than (or seems different than) most people's routine. Maybe I just need to get comfortable in this routine. Doing that means to me that DH will then get a job and I'll have to get used to and comfortable with a new routine again! We go to bed so late (between 12 and 2 AM) and we get up so late (between 8 and 11 AM). It seems the day is shot before it gets going, but we do make the best of our long evenings (sun is still shining at 10 PM) when we are feeling well by doing gardening in the cool of the evening.
Baby R turned 9 months old this week!!! I just figured out that she is just 2 days older than Stellan. When I realized that, I was all the more thankful for this roly-poly cherub who knows a joke and gives a joke already. She's my sweet cuddly tubby-tubby baby. See:

Where does the time go? It's tough when there's so much going on...and that calendar does fill up fast. Only 3 months until the big 1 huh? That's very exciting.

I've been pretty busy lately myself. This is the first time in a long time that I am able to blog and do Company Girl Coffee. I just started doing Fly Lady.
