What's new?

Today seems to be the first chance I've had all week to be home. I just seem to run, run, run. I guess we all do.

Here's a brief synopsis of my exciting life this week: (yes that WAS tongue in cheek)
Monday - drove all day home
Tuesday - Lessons & cleaned out my study (I had music ALL over the floor)
Wednesday - More lessons and spent the entire rest of the day on income taxes, then presented a missionary/cultural night for the YW that evening serving platanos fritos, horchata, black beans, freshly made corn tortillas, pico de gallo, and fresh mangos.
Thursday - Visiting teaching all morning and afternoon
Friday - Trying to get my head back on and figure out where to start digging from.

On top of it all, I've been working through some obstacles with some of my musicians this week. We'll see what this weekend brings.

It's always tough to go out of town for us both before we leave and after. The cleaning, the packing and all of the mental lists of things that need to be done beforehand. Then afterwards, trying to pick back up into the swing of things, getting laundry and everything back into place...maybe I'll have it back together again by next week.

My husband has a new policy which is that he doesn't make any big decisions for at least two weeks after we get back. Long enough to normalize and get back into the swing of things - I rather like that policy.

However, my laundry is calling me and I have just enough time to make a dent before my kiddos head back in from school.

All I can say is I LOVE FRIDAYS and don't like those Mondays quite so much.
