Struggling to get back in the saddle

Helllooooo? Is anybody still there? A whole week, and nary a peep out of me, not even a single venture out to visit anyone else. I even missed the Thursday Thirteen this week.

Let's just say 10 days at home with a 2 and a 4 year old, lot's of excitement, and MANY new toys to fight over... makes for one tired, half-crazed Mom. Logging on to my PC just isn't a luxury I've had, and by the way, it's been killing me.

Repeat after me... two glasses of wine after the kids are finally in bed makes Mommy sane again!

I'm halfway back now, and hope to be back in the groove of a regular schedule again next week.

By the way... the picture below is what you get when things get mysteriously quiet in the next room, and you fail to check out why. I should know better, but I think by the end of this particular day, I was just happy for 5 minutes of peace and quiet.

What I actually heard was Bug and Bean carrying on some sort of happy and civilized discussion. It was like they were playing with each other and enjoying it immensely. Which SHOULD have tipped me off that something was awry, but NO. I was just hoping that maybe they were actually playing well together without fighting and screaming.



This was originally a plain red Corvette pedal car. Bug's 3rd birthday gift from his godparents, Bob and Lala.

NOW Behold ... it is Flower Power Vette!
