Summertime Fun

It's another rainy day. My favorite. Although, I'll admit there is a certain something missing from my quiet rainy day fantasy when there are 4 kids running a muck and screaming at each other. I desperately need time on the sewing machine. I have so many projects going. But alas, grocery shopping with 4(!), another 50 loads of laundry, 2 more meals, dishes, 2 baseball games, 4 baths and a days worth of picking up toys and I will surely be too tired to even sit at the machine...again! Not that I am complaining... .

Yesterday I managed to escape to my bi-monthly breastfeeding taskforce meeting. I am so lucky to have a local taskforce, as I think we may be the only one in Illinois! Hooray for us!! I also worked on the face-lift for my breastfeeding website. I am hoping to get busy with advertising and such so that I can meet more women and get more clients. I was given the opportunity to attend a fair--a great place to meet expecting moms/potential clients. I am considering if now is a good time. Sometimes getting away is worth the chaos it requires to get away...

I am in a rambling mood... such is the summertime for me. Discombobulated. Is that a real word? I use it all the time, which, in the world of linguistics, means YES! it is totally a word, although the spelling is negotiable. lol

If you are reading this, you qualify to apply for entry into the kids' summer blog, which is currently under construction. I always fear they will forget everything over the summer, so I am forcing them to keep up with a few skills by creating a private blog about our life with animals. One of my sons (who shall remain nameless) is planning to use this blog as a virtual wish list. Ha! In any case. It is by and for kids, so you can sign your kids up if you want to. (Emma's contribution will be largely photographic.) We are keeping it private for obvious reasons, so you must email me for entry. jami at fawley dot net...or any of my others...lol

Have a great day!

I hear the starting "gun" (a water gun in our case)...and I am off...
