Not much new here

Okay, not much is going on here but errands, packing, cooking, cleaning, rinse off kids, and repeat.

With this week being looong days of sunlight, that means I can get loads done, right?
Seriously, the sun is coming up at 4:40-ish A.M., and stays up until 10:00. That gives me ample time to get things done! So, here I am at 10:40 P.M.at night still doing laundry, checking blogs, and making a long (er) to-do list for tomorrow. And shouldn't I be doing that super-thick kindergarten packet? Absolutely. There it still sits on the kitchen island. It occasionally makes me feel guilty for not finishing it-but then I get over it.

On a funny note: we were at the commissary picking up a few things today and Nick pushed Ryan down and called him a "Cry Baby". I told him that he was not allowed to play Wii when we got home (add this to the other bothersome things he was doing to others-he deserved losing it). We were telling Daddy tonight why he couldn't play the Wii (they like to play a game of golf in the evenings), and he corrected me. "No mom, I didn't just call him a baby. I called him a cry baby". I guess it was worth it to lose the Wii privilege.

6 fabulous friends:

Your kids are hilarious! I love it when they say funny stuff like that! You really have daylight at 4:30 in the morning! Holy cow! I wouldn't know what to do with myself! Yuck! That is just way too early to see daylight!

And about the Twilight books - you would love them! I wasn't interested either, but it was others telling me how good they were that got me hooked. Seriously - great books! And just so you know, the author puts a different spin on what we think about vampires - makes it very interesting. Let me know if you decide to read them. I think you would love them. Word to the wise, though: a lot of people are letting their young girls read them - I wouldn't let my girls read them younger than high school. Just F.Y.I. Have a great night!

That's WAY too many hours of sunlight. I couldn't handle it. Kids won't sleep when there's sun out...

That amount of sunlight would seriously screw with my internal clock. I'd feel jetlagged or something.
