A peak at my brain

This summer has been CRAZY for me!!  I took on too much and now my brain is in overload.  Here is what is going on in my brain on any given day:  Pre-school: send e-mails, contact board members, get letter for the parents ready to mail before camp, buy a printer that works, figure out what in the heck I'm doing!  Girls camp: find supplies for crafts, figure out how to make crafts, think about packing early so nothing is forgotten, go to meetings, stock up on Dr. Pepper!  Wedding: make sure I have enough help, plan baking days, try to find a place for the kids for the week, get a shopping list ready, find a fridge!  Fair: plan what I'm entering, get the kids entries ready, register online this year so I don't have to wait in line.  Kids: make memories, take them swimming again, back to school shopping, go camping, dentist visits, eye doctor visits, football practice, Jr. High registration, plan Kolby's birthday, plan for his ordination, get the boys ready for scout camp!  Garden: keep picking zucchini, beans, cucumbers, squash and anticipate loads of tomatoes, water like crazy, weed like crazy.  Bake zucchini bread every day.  (I make four loaves a DAY and they are gone.  Fast.)  This is all on top of the regular stuff cramming my brain like dishes, dinners, laundry, trying to see friends more so they don't think we hate them all, feeding and feeding and feeding my kids (I swear, I am at the store all the time!)  Plus I just got the fun idea that it was time to organize Tayla's room.

Oh my goodness, if I make it through August I know I can do anything.  Beth

My goodness Beth, that is just too much. Glad I am a ways from having 5 kids. If there is anything you think I can help with let me know, even if it is just taking Tayla for the day or something like that. I may be out of commission for a bit, but I am sure that when Kyah is home she would love to have someone to play with.
