Where Have I Been!?!?!?

Where have I been!?!!? I promise, I have been around...but in between work and trying to get everything ready for "Miss Priss" (AKA Katelyn's) Graduation party I have had just enough time to drop in and check out all of your blogs (somedays not enough that) but I have not had any time to even touch my blog...much less create new posts.

I promise, I will soon be back with some Prim eye candy, pics of our Koi pond and maybe even a pic or two of the party itself!! LOL!!

But let me tell you girls, I AM EXHAUSTED!!!!!! I am ready for a vacation. I was supposed to be on vacation next week but I think I may give the days up....and save them for later on in the summer. Mainly because, "Miss Priss" will be in Florida, "Muscles" will be in summer school part of the days (he is taking Driver's Education) and "Big Daddy" will be at work...so I am not sure if it would be worth taking it. I think I rather take the days off whenever we all can take the time off together.

Even though, I really think I could use a few "me" days. You know those days where I don't have to be any where at any certain time. Or answer to anybody. Where I can do what I want when I want. No pre-set agenda. But then again, knowing me I would be lonely and bored!! Isn't that sad!?!?! Not that I would ever really know...I haven't had too many of those days. LOL!!

Seriously though, how do you all do it?!?!?!? It just seems that all of you girls have your "stuff" together. Where most days, I feel like I am always going but yet never getting much accomplished...you all seem to be able to blog, craft, take care of your children and homes (beautiful homes, I might add) and still have your sanity? I swear between work and home, I feel that the is never enough time in the day. Not to mention that fact that there never seems to be enough time for things like crafting (which BTW, I would LOVE to do more of!!)

BTW, THANKS FOR ALL OF THE ADVICE ON HOW TO HANDLE STRESS. I HAVE TRIED A FEW OF THE SUGGESTIONS. BUT WITH WORKING, GETTING READY FOR THE GRADUATION PARTY, AND EVERYTHING ELSE LIFE HAS THROWN MY WAY IN THE PAST WEEK OR SO, IT DOESN'T SEEM TO BE HELPING. BUT I PROMISED "BIG DADDY" THAT AS SOON AS THIS PARTY IS OVER I WILL SLOW DOWN - TAKE A FEW DEEP BREATHS, MAYBE EVEN START EXCERCISING AND THAT I WILL TRY TO RELAX MORE!! I HAVE A FEW PRIM PROJECTS THAT I AM EXCITED TO START....

Hi Carrie!
It does sound like you have an awful lot on your plate, but I guess that's true for most of us. You just do what you can do and let the rest fall by the wayside. Hang in there, girl!

Carrie,

Glad to hear from you! I don't have it all together that's for sure. As I've said on my blog working does stress me out a bit and striking that balance. I'm enjoying the summer without a daytime agenda (except swim lessons) I would encourage you to take at least 1 or 2 me days. It might be nice for a change.

Hang in there!

Hi Carrie,
I don't know how working women do it honestly. I know I would be a mess.It would be too much for me with taking care of a house and family.I don't work outside of the home and I still don't get everything done that I should and I still feel stressed sometimes. I don't think everyone else really has it "together". It probably just seems like that.I hope you have a good day and get some vacation time soon!
