My life is a series of ups and downs. The ups are REALLY up (wedding, kids, etc), and the downs, while crappy enough at the time, aren't all that crappy all things considered (unless you count Dad passing away, but that was really it so far).
Well, right now, it seems I'm in a down rotation right now. Every word out of my mouth is worth of eye-rolling, snickering, or sighs of exasperation from friends and strangers alike. I'm getting the shit kicked out of me at work every day it seems, and even though I try not to take things personally... sometimes I can't help but wonder why on earth I wanted this new job so badly.
Ray loves Kindy. She's not crazy about the 06 wake-up time however. Greta's having a blast in preschool again. She too is resistant to the early rising.
Sailor goes to work tomorrow. Well, on course, technically, but he's stuck in a classroom for 8 hours a day for the next 12-15 weeks. At least he's not sailing til the spring.
Swim classes got shifted a week to the right due to an injury on the instructor. Ray did her first dance class - well... she watched it mostly. But that's okay. She'll warm up again. I hope. Greta danced though.
This week's flex:
Sunday - shopping and movie with a friend
Monday - work (mess meeting. yay.)
Tuesday - work.
Wednesday - work.
Thursday - Ray goes to the school camp for the day. Then we all have swim lessons. As long as Sailor gets home by 4:30. Somehow.
Friday - work (boss's afternoon. yay.)
I'm going to check out the tv listings and see what's on this week. It's pretty shitty when Vampire Diaries is the only thing that cheers me up. Well... that and Gord Ramsay's tirades on HK.

The Rain In Spain...
is falling here because Sailor has two weeks left before he begins his 6B's and the deck that never ends is still going on. So far, he has one set of railings up, the deck covering on, and one coat of sealer. He wants to put up 7 more sets of railings, 4 glass panels, the railings for the stairs and another coat of sealer. Uh huh.
Oh, and he has a wee cold too, so that's laying him low and out of commission.
Ray starts Kindy tomorrow. I have convinced her (I hope) to wear the outfit I purchased her when she was about 9 months old. I'll be taking lots of photos tomorrow for sure.
This week's flex:
Tues - Kindy for Ray, Preschool for Greta. I got part of the forenoon off so I can drop them off and get all sobby. Then I have a Beyond Transitions session which has restarted for the fall.
Wed - I was supposed to have lunch with a designer, but I'm starting my professionally led workouts that day, so I have to reschedule. That'll be swimming from 13-1400, then upper body from 1430-1530. I will pick up the girls a little late on Mondays and Wednesdays now.
Thurs - I'm going to try to work from home today. I have job descriptions to write, and letters of appreciation for the Committee, not to mention that pesky final assignment for my marketing course. That way, I can do the family picnic with Ray at her school, and then get Greta in time for her dad to take her to the Backyardigan's show in town for the afternoon.
Fri - The cleaners are coming! YAY! I have a workout from 0830 - 0930 (lower body), then a forestry memories opening in the afternoon, and choir practice that night. Hopefully my boss gives me the afternoon off.
Things are going to get busier as the fall wears on - we have signed the girls up for swim lessons on Thursday afternoons RIGHT after we get home, so that'll keep us busy til November. My Adult Tap lessons start in October on Tuesday nights, and Ray's dance classes start the same day as the Church's annual garage sale which I'm singing at. Yeesh! Busy enough?
