Life is busy!

Worked all day today at REI from 10-6:30.  It was a busy day with the REI anniversary Sale.  I really like working there - just with I made more money.  When I add up what Mike can make in one hour compared to me - he's made the amount of money I make in 8 hours in 2 hours...oh. well.  I'm enjoying the people and the break from kid duty.  I do miss my little people when I've missed out on bedtime and soccergames...  It's made Mike allot more helpful and compassionate.  Really looking forward to school letting out for the summer.  I want to take my kids camping allot and hiking.  This month has been so incredibly full - I blew my car up yesterday - it overheated and I just wasn't paying attention - singing songs with the kids in the car etc....  so poor mike's calling all over the place for a new engine, luckily he's very social and likeable and i've got a borrowed Minivan parked in front of the house for the next couple of weeks use.  This month is the "month of Angela" month - my 40th birthday, wedding anniversary, and mothers day.  I've got  3 camping spots for my birthday celebration. everyone's camping and eating schmores, etc...  nothing planned for the wedding anniversary - a kiss and pat on the butt.  mothers day:  working all weekend.  I think I'm going to have a all girls slumber party- the family will be gone to race Mikes car far away.  so I'll have 2 nights and 3 days to myself - unfortunately, I'll be working...(fortunately).  today mike brought the kids to my work - i was so suprised.  they were sooo freaking cute and sweet...  they hung out with me and "helped" while mike and his dad found and bought a sun hat.  I just can't get enough of those two little beauties.  they drive me crazy , but than i just want to smoosh on them and tickle them.  Carly said the funniest thing at bedtime:

me:  "carly time to get your jammies on - which ones do you want to wear?"
carly:  "mommy let's just be silly"!
me:  tickle,crazy play.

kids are such a good reminder of just loosening up and having fun....  when I get stressed out my beautiful son asks me:  mommy why aren't you smiling?  (drats, need to stop stressing!)......

fun, camping, hiking, crazy, car, rei
