While I was working last night I thought about all the things I want to write about…so many things. I haven’t been writing much because I have been so busy and trés fatigue. Story of my life I guess. I actually thought about a really good memory that I wanted to write about a long time ago…need to put into my memory book still. It was about graduation — so many great memories to record from that time — but it made me think about all the things I need to do that I haven’t been able to, like seriously search for a better job and apply for graduate school in addition to all the writing I want to do. Sigh.
Right now I have my 3 nephews with me (more to write about that for sure). My nephews — their ages are 8, 5 and 4 (soon to be 6 and 5 this month…birthdays!!) — are very rambunctious and my husband and I are trying to work with them to get them to settle down a little. We have had the boys with us for 5 days now. They are a handful but I am glad to have them …though it does prevent me from doing all that I need to for me. I don’t know how parents who have lots of kids do it… how mother’s do it with many children (I suppose even 1 or 2 can be a handful at times…yes, I know 1 child can be a handful at time, ha), especially when they are close in age. It becomes your life and that is all you have to want to be is a mother. I have always known that is not me and that’s why I haven’t had children of my own yet…but somehow I always get stuck taking care of other people’s kids (definitely more to write about there). You have to do what you have to do I guess…
