A crazy, busy, wonderfully full week

Madeline believes that Abraham Lincoln photobombed us!

It has been said that there is no rest for the weary (or wicked).  Sometimes I really wonder what that truly means.  I spent last week in Washington, D. C. with Madeline's 8th grade class.  The trip was not exactly what I had hoped for, but it was a chance to spend time with my Madeline.

I arrived home after 12 AM Sunday morning.  And, I slid right back into a very hectic schedule.  Church at 9, Sunday School at 10, a vacation Bible School meeting at 11, and a Church Voters' meeting at 1.  I nervously watched my watch the entire Voters' meeting, hoping I would have time to make it to a 4-H meeting.  I was so ready to fall into bed by 9 pm that I did not even need to have the buzz of a fan to lull me to sleep.

I asked, well I told my husband that Monday was going to be a day off.  He agreed, I needed a day off.  After I took the girls to school, I headed home.  Home to bed, home to relaxation, home!  Then my phone rang.  My husband asked if I could come help him on a job site.  Like I have said before, there is no rest for the weary.

Madeline and Julie competed in a track meet on Monday evening.  We went to a Trans Ova meeting in Wooster on Tuesday, with a little detour to pick up a bull calf from my cousin's farm on the trip home.  Madeline and Julie had track meets on Wednesday and Thursday.  And it is Friday.  Time to sit for five seconds. . .  Maybe!
