I thought I would be floundering a bit more this week since all my babies are in school.
No such luck.
We bought a fixer-upper to flip or rent and having crying fits so much fun cleaning, fixing, and dealing with contractor mistakes that I’m still sick about.   On top of that, fundraising joys for school.  I got six hours of volunteer time in already this week, probably more.

Yesterday, after feeling completely stressed out, I took Cole to the lake that is by the little house- the only redeeming quality I can find in it today.   The lake was beautiful but very dirty.  Kids hang out there and I found *whippits and other great things floating around.  I think I’ll have my scout troop do a clean up soon.

I have to keep telling myself all my stresses are self-inflicted and I have total control of that.  Next week will be better.  I say so.

*FYI- Whippits are where people suck the gas from the whipped cream cans to get high.
