Whew! Labor Day has definitely not been labor free! The entire weekend has been rather busy...but a good busy.
Friday. So, I have gotten on a kick of bringing home the kids "homework" from school each day. It may be a coloring page. It may be something crafty. I'm trying to gear them up for school....although that is almost a year away. I've gone back and forth of whether or not to send them somewhere this year (for just a couple of days), but it would be difficult at this point to have someone take and pick them up (not to mention a big hit in our finances). Don't get me started on my sourness of not being able to take them and pick them up from a pre-k program. Ok......getting WAY off topic. ANYWAY. The kids are loving the homework....sometimes (I HAVE had them tell me to take it back to school on occasion...ha!). Friday afternoon was a crafty day. They LOVE the crafty days. Me? Well, Friday's craft was a bit much. Yep....GREAT way to start the weekend....I was cleaning up FOREVER after this one!!!
Saturday. Clean, clean, clean. I also started obsessing about making some extra cash. I packed up all of the kids clothing that didn't fit AND some toys that they were uninterested in. Thank you Lake Oconee Yardsale! I made over $200 this weekend. Yay me.
Sunday. Funday. Church was first followed by a day-long visit to White Plains. We had a good time.
Monday. We delivered some of the Lake Oconee Yardsale deals and headed off to Athens! Needless to say, the kiddos got some cute new fall clothes out of my earnings! I'm POOPED! The kids were great, but simply loading and unloading them out of the car can be exhausting!
Now, I'm depressed that I have to leave the good times for work tomorrow! Long weekends are wonderful but it makes it that much harder to get back in the groove!
You do such an awesome job with those babies. They are very lucky to have you and cody as their mama and daddy. that was a great idea about the online yard sales!
