Long time no write???

Hello from the land of great intentions....anyone ever heard of it?? It's that place where you mean to do something but never seem to have the time or get around to it.  My husband was at a supervisors conference a few months back and brought me home a whole bunch of round discs with TUIT written on them.  He told me they were my around to its.
Anyway, I've been busy with kids honestly.  This is the first summer that I can remember not looking forward to my kids going back to school.  I mean a part of me is kinda looking forward to it when it's over 100 degrees outside and they are fighting with each other like crazy, I admit I get a little excited about back to school. Or when all of the 4 kids are bottomless pits, I think man I'm actually going to save money when they go back to school on my grocery bill.  Of course that was before I had to pay for a month of lunches for each kid this week at registration....yikes that will leave a mark!  My 2 oldest actually told me we don't have to prep the week before school to get back into the routine. There have been very few days all summer where anyone has gotten to sleep in.  But it's been a pretty good summer I must say.  The kids saw all their hard work with their animals pay off at fair time, the older girls have been busy with cheerleading plus Special K with volleyball and the kids put all their gift cards and money they've been saving together for a pool (we kicked in some money to help out) and they have really enjoyed playing in it since it's been so hot and dry.
Next week starts a new chapter in my life.....all 4 of my kids will be in school full-time!  Yikes, I'm not old enough for this epic day!  Special K has changed so much these last few months that I swear I have heartburn every day.  I didn't realize she would change so fast.  It's almost like I'm measuring her every day and she's grown even more. She's now only about 3 inches shorter than her sister and I, her foot is almost the same size as B and she just looks like a young lady now and not a little girl.  It's amazing!  Now that's not taking away from the other littles, T-man has grown and he's losing his baby face but not to the extent of his sister and Mae, well, she is getting so independent and she's going to be taller than all us other girls in the family, I can tell already!  Plus she's just an amazing kid.  She went to get her kindergarten shots Monday.  She wasn't scared or nervous even after the doctor kept us waiting for almost an hour!  Seems he had a well-child check up with his kids that was more important.....I got a little nervous because you could hear his kids screaming while they got shots and I thought Mae has been so brave and looked forward to this day and now it's going to sink in but nope, she got 4 shots and didn't shed a single tear! She had a huge grin on her face walking out of the office because "She's officially an kindergartener now!"  I had tears because she's my baby......  So, Friday the kids go back to school, I'm not sure what exactly I'm going to do with my free time.  While they are in school, I will have free time after school gets out, totally different....that's when I will run around like crazy getting kids to practices, meetings, sporting events, etc.  I'm thinking I will take the time when they are in school to get my house organized, it's going through a tornado, earthquake and hurricane this summer with the kids, I fear it could be declared a disaster area!  (ok not quite but it seems like it) and I'm going to spend some time reading.  I've slacked this summer big time on reading the bible in a year so I have a lot of catching up to do!  I've found lots of neat crochet ideas to make, I taught myself to knit this summer and I find it relaxing plus I listen to books on my iPod while I crochet or knit so I'm multitasking!  I was thinking if I knit and crochet, I could have a booth at the craft fair and sell my items.....who knows!  I think I'm going to just leave it in God's hands.  I'm sure He's going to lead me down the right path as He has so many times in my life.  I know the first couple weeks will be strange and I will be lonely home all by myself but I'm sure I will find something to do.  Plus it's almost breeding season for the goats! That's always fun to make sure a) they all get bred but b) not at the same time!  Maybe I'll get all my tax info in order or my goat paperwork filed with ABGA!  I was thinking of going back to school but with the evenings crazy busy I'm not sure I can swing that.  I will certainly try to be better at blogging.  If not, here's one of my round tuit chips :)
Anyone have any suggestions on things I can do with my time????  I would love to hear them!  I'm going to be free from 7:30 until 3:45 Monday-Friday.  Hope you all had a great summer!  I'm off to enjoy my last week with my little blessings.
