Busy

We have two more days of swim lessons, a house to clean, errands to run, laundry to do, two people to get packed for a week, then I think we will be finished. Brianna is headed to my parents house on Saturday to spend the week with them. She is so excited. I think my kids really need a break from each other. They are beginning to get on each others nerves, which means they are driving me nuts. I will miss them next week though.

I am trying too hard to plan things for next week. I am such a planner and feel much better when a plan is in place. I want to plan things for the girls in my room and for the kids on my team at camp. I don't know when we will have time to do any of these things I want to do. I am also trying to plan things for Brian and Alex. I am trying to think what Brian can fix for supper each night, I think I am afraid they won't eat if I'm not here. I am also trying to plan stuff for Ellie to do with Alex. I just don't want him to give her a hard time. He is a totally different kid when the girls are not here, so I don't think he will be too much trouble. I don't have to worry about planning for Brianna, Momma has taken care of that.

I am beginning to get excited about camp. I will miss Brian and the kids, but am looking forward to getting to know the girls in my room. The three in my room are girls that I don't know that well, so I am excited about getting a glimpse into their lives. At leader meeting on Sunday the guys were talking about wrestling in rooms and such, that must totally be a guy thing. I just don't see a bunch of girls pushing back furniture to wrestle.

Liz will be home on Friday. I have missed that girl the past several weeks. I sure haven't had to make as much pink lemonade since she left.

I started listening to the audio book "New Moon" yesterday. I read "Twilight," the first of the series last week. If you are into vampires and such, it's really good. Now, I just want to know what happens to Bella and Edward in the new book that comes out on 8/2. I still have "New Moon" and "Eclipse" to read before I will be ready for the new book, I should be finished in time. The Yada Yada Prayer Group books are good too. I read those last summer and loved them. I am waiting to get my hands on the new one in that series also. Anyway, I was telling Brian about "New Moon" last night and he was saying it is junk, he likes technical books where you learn something when you read them. I told him he wishes I had written that "junk." He always calls my books "junk."
