Wednesday Whimsy

Well, I'm a tad late on saying Happy Monday on the blog this week, but Hump Day is as good a day as any, right?

Sorry for the absence {did ya really even notice?}...it's like I feel as though I've been busy, yet I have no idea with what. So I can't even come here and rain down my list of excuses on you. I certainly have nothing to show for this sense of busy-ness I have.

Is my house clean? No.
Car clean? No.
Am I richer? Definitely not.

I think I just took a mental break from blogging, albeit a short one. I do have some goings-on to share with y'all though...so let's just get right to it.

1. Tanner is signed up for fall baseball with the recreation dept. {I also even have all of his uniforms and supplies ready to go for school - way early! Good Mommy Points for me!} Can't believe my firstborn is going into 2nd grade...does it ever get easier????

2. Today was my last day at my gym job. I had been working there on M, W and F's from 4am to 8am. Then heading to my full-time job after that. I put in about 6 months, but around 2 weeks ago, I just realized how utterly exhausted I'd become and that it just wasn't worth it. The pay was shitty and I was tired of donating what is my main window of opportunity to get my workouts done for the day. So I put in my two weeks. Not looking back. I start my morning 5:30am workouts tomorrow {until school starts, then I get to do 7:30am after dropping off the kiddos}.

3. I'm working on Breckin's 3rd birthday party. We are going with a construction/tool theme. I've been getting the decor and supplies together...the party is on August 3rd at our pool {thank God for the free venue, hate having to rush and stress to clean my house for birthday parties!} I'm happy to say I've pretty much gotten everything I need!

4. We're considering putting our house up for sale and finally moving back closer to civilization. We like where we are except that it's a trek to the grocery store and we really want to get back into the town we hang out most in and run all our errands in. We have a realtor coming to evaluate our home next weekend. Wish us luck with this process and for the best outcome possible!
