Done!

I am so O.V.E.R. this school year.

We have had transportation issues with the 2 older boys & the brunt of hauling them around has fallen on my shoulders.  Juggling that, the other children & my job has gotten on my last nerve.

I really don't know what my problem is.  This is the way it has been for years.

I'm trying to be thankful that I have all my children here.  They are healthy & in many activities & I am employed when so many aren't.  Whine much???

It is amazing how cathartic it is to write that!!!

I'm going to suck it up....

A good mother would!

23 years....

Beloved Spouse and I were wed on a raining evening 23 years ago in the parish where I was raised.

10 Children, countless jobs and moves and change, we have made it this far.  Almost to the Silver Anniversary!!!

I remember when I threw my parents their 25th wedding anniversary party and it seemed like such a big deal...and now that I am on the verge of it myself....It seems like yesterday!

Since this year it fell on Mother's Day, I got the best present ever!

My husband asked our priest to bless us after mass!!!! My spouse of 23 years and I knelt before our priest in the gathering space of our parish and received a blessing.

BEST. GIFT. EVER.

Happy Anniversary Spouse...can't wait to see what you get me next year!!!!

6 posts

It is the start of May.

I don't remember being extra busy in April.  And Lord knows I have lots to say!  So it can only be chalked up to distraction and laziness.  Wow.  Sad, sad, commentary on  my decision making procees!

I renew my commitment to my blog, because,
