103 Bloglines to Read
I’ve been absent from the blogs lately (mine included). So when I checked my bloglines yesterday, I found 103 of your posts waiting for me to read. It was almost overwhelming, and I was tempted to just reset it and start fresh, but then I would be missing out. So guess what I did all day yesterday. Sorry, I wasn’t about to make 103 comments.
It was nice to have a lazy day after PTA meetings and playgroups and volunteering and cleaning the house and church meetings and parent-teacher conferences. Today the kids start a 10-day fall break from school. I’m ready for it. My brain is mush–so mushy that I can’t think of anything else to do with the kids besides letting them sit in front of the Disney channel or PBS on TV.
Have any ideas?
Oh, and another thing. What would you do? Spend $2,000 to fix the timing belt of a 1986 Mercedes that leaks oil, or scrap it and look to buy another inexpensive older car?
Dh has been taking the van (instead of his scooter) more often to his appointments that are in the neighboring cities. One guy (a mega-producer) said he wouldn’t do business with Dh if he brought his scooter…something about it looking unprofessional. It may be unprofessional, but it’s cheap! Plus it’s not like we live in Singapore and can pile all 3 kids and our dog on the scooter with me. Besides, Alicia would probably refuse to be my friend if I did that.
Oh well, if Dh does business with this guy, we may be able to afford something more appropriate.
I know that feeling. When my bloglines # gets up above 50 I start to feel guilty. It’s at 34 right now.
I hate car problems. (Duh, who doesn’t?) I have no advice. Here’s a cliche answer: “have you prayed about it?”
good luck.
