7 days!!

Ok again, technically 6 because it's 12:45am! The good news from today is my kids are all asleep!! WOOO HOO!!!

Today was dh's b-day, he turned the big 4-0!! I was going to have a party for him, but I just ran out of time and before I knew it it was less then a week before his b-day and I just couldn't get my shit together. Soo..we ended up having a quiet night at home and we all enjoyed it.

Today the kiddos and I went to the store and got stuff to make a cake. Kiddos got the decorations, OMG what a hoot! The cake ended up looking like someone threw up multi-colored sprinkles!! ROFL! I took of picture of dh, kids & the cake. Hopefully the picture will turn out and I'll post it.

We (kiddos & I) also went to the local pool today and watched the city employees drain the pool. WOW did we have some great memories there this year (and some fantastic tan lines..even w/ SPF 50) to prove it. It was sad to see the pool practically empty, the summer is over. Then we went to the park, played for about an hour then came home.

That was about our day in a nutshell.

Im sooo super busy this week, my mom is coming down from MN on Friday and staying with me for a week while dh is on a business trip. He'll be gone all next week which REALLY, REALLY sucks since the kids start school next week. He's missing orientation and everything. Oh well..he's gotta pay the bills.

Speaking of bills, I got a suprise phone call today from my old boss (b4 kids) offering me a job next year when the kids go to school. It would be pretty low key, extremely part time (2-3 days a week for only a couple hours). He's running his own business and wants me to help with the invoices/billing/ordering CRAP! I'd love to work for him again, who knows..maybe it'll work out. Ideally I'd like to work somewhere in the school district, so I'd have the same hours as the kids and not have to pay daycare during the summer.

Im off to go read more of "Inkspell", it's a sequel to "Inkheart" which I loved. Im enjoying this one even more!! Hope to finish it by the time my mom gets here.
