I hope I get out of this rut and come to a point where I have something more interesting than my boring humdrum daily existence to write about, soon!

I caught the cold that Sarah and the baby had... Sarah's over it, the baby's ALMOST over it... and I'm sick as a dog. Go figure. I'm glad THEY'RE feeling better, though!

We went to church last night. We got there late, but we made it... then when we got home I had to wake Bob up to let us in cuz my house key was not on the keychain with my car key... but I put it on as soon as we got in so it won't happen again!

Bob decided we can't afford a dryer right now. I'm bummed. : (

Took Sarah and Selena to the doctor today. Selena got a vaccine, Sarah a recheck on her lungs. Doc says he wants to see Sarah back in a month, and if she continues to improve like she has been, at that time he'll discontinue all her meds.

Another day... not much going on here. Just the usual humdrum existence. Sigh.

Frank is at Joanna's house painting the kitchen. He'll be home in another hour or so... I hope he's not too tired to be of some help when he gets here!

He's playing with her and being loud again. C'est la vie...

Now he's dumped her, and she still wants to play with him...

Now Timmy is attempting to amuse his baby sister... and it's hard to let him, cuz in amusing HER he's being very noisy and annoying!

It's been an especially rough day today. We managed to get to church, but while I was there I hurt my back, trying to pick Selena up. Then while I was in bed trying to rest my back, the baby fell off the couch and hit her head. : (

On the way up there was a huge accident, and apparently on the way back, too. We waited through the whole traffic jam on the way up, but on the way back managed to escape it.

Bob and I went to the drive-in last night and saw "Windtalkers". It was pretty good. Last time we went to the drive-in we saw "We Were Soldiers". Interesting... LOL

Was gonna say a bit, but it's getting crazy here. Better luck next time?

Frank is being lazy about doing work people ask him to do, and it's irritating to me, because I have no income, and want him to be grateful he has an opportunity to put some money in his pocket.

I let Sarah spend the night at Ashley's last night and she still hasn't come home yet. I wonder if she's even woken up yet? She gives me the hardest time... I'm not looking forward to getting her up for school in a couple months.

Timmy didn't understand what he was supposed to be doing, and he couldn't comprehend my explanation, either. Finally, I asked Joey to explain it to him. Now they're getting along... wish it were always like that!

Now stupid waol has kicked me offline, so I gotta find what I was looking at before it happened. Aaaargh!

On the other hand, the evenings are going to be difficult, as I know they're going to resist doing their homework.

I think I'm going to enjoy having the kids in school during the day when they go this fall... but not sure yet. It's a lot of work to get them ready & get them there... I have to get up at about 4:45 am to get Sarah up so she can be at the bus stop before 6... then I have to leave here at 7 with the boys to get them to school in time for breakfast. ALL of them want to eat breakfast at school... which is fine, since we qualify for free breakfast, why not? Saves us some money, time, and effort...

My, where on earth does the time go? Whew! Took Frank to BCC yesterday, to investigate whether or not he's really interested in going to COLLEGE as opposed to TECHNICAL SCHOOL. He is supposed to go tonight, to an orientation at Sheridan Vo-Tech to learn more about that... time will tell.
