miscellany monday

Monday.  We meet again.  All too soon.  Grab some coffee and get settled in for some very random thoughts.  My mind is not quite right yet this morning so there is really no telling where this will go.  Just bear with me.  

{ONE}  It's raining and I love it.  It has been so hot and dry here in the Memphis area and I have been watering my plants 2 or 3 times a day, desperately willing them to survive.  This rain was much needed and much welcomed.  

{TWO}  We spent our weekend in our boat on the lake.  I say lake, but we've actually been going to the TN River.  It was a glorious weekend and we all love being on the water.  The kids sleep like the dead at the end of a long day on the boat.  

{THREE}  My baby boy starts preschool in one short month and I'm freaking out a little.  Every time I think about it I get a little teary.  He's going to love it and it's going to be so good for him.  I will cry getting him ready that morning.  I'll cry taking his first day of school pictures.  I'll cry all the way to the school and cry as I drive away.  How did we get here?  Do we really have a child starting school already?  

{FOUR}  Here it is.  You knew it was coming.  Monday = laundry day.  I have yet to get my tush in gear and start my laundry.  But it's there.  Waiting for me.  Like a lion waiting for a zebra.  

{FIVE}  I have tons of posts to write - crafty, product review, recipe... I'm just A LOT behind and not really sure how that happened.  I have, however, begun getting caught up on my family blog.  I posted my kids' pictures from the photo shoot I did to document Presley's 18 month milestone.  Keeping up with two blogs, two kids, a house, a husband and a dog is a little tiring.  But I am blessed.  At least I have all these "things" to keep up with. 

{SIX}  I recently hit 200 followers and I am humbled.  Thanks to all of you for tuning in every day to see what this small town girl from Kentucky has to say.  Blessings to you all!
