Like a train....

The song from Phillip Phillips is stuck in my head, like drum, so I thought it would be a fitting title for this entry.  I am back at work, back at the helm of my desk, attemptint to erradicate the dust bunnies, find books of great interest, and appear to have some sort of semblance to my classroom. It is a good thing that I share a classroom with an amazing person, who teaches on on the side  ;0).  However with this fresh start, the schedules have been reinstituted and I'm starting to try and run on schedule, like a train. 

Two trips to the beach, numerous trips to the pool attempting to wear out my children, there was much fun had.  I'm going to miss my summer in some ways.  It was the kind of summer that will forever be etched in my brain. 

I'm struggling with some kind of drepression that's driving me crazy.  I could fall asleep at the drop of a hat, could cry at the sappiest Hallmark commercial, and fly off the handle, with anger that makes me forget why I was angry.  My frustration is a low and I have to find a way to increase it. 

Off to be productive....

Happy Friday!

WHOOOHOOOO, it's Friday, my dears!  Isn't that such a wonderful exclamatory phrase?!  I know for some of my friends it is the conclusion of summer school, thus allowing them some time to relax before returning to the grind in just 3 short weeks.  For others, it is the signal to the end of a busy and stressful work week, when that Friday beer is just what the doctor ordered.  Here the weekend signals more fun and enjoyment with family and friends.  Oh, and it is also haircut Saturday!!!!!  How could I not mention that?!  It is always the highlight of my weekend when I get a haircut.  Not that I change the style, short is the way to go with 2 young kiddos, but I adore my Judi.  Shoooot, she's been cutting my hair for the last 22 years.  She was there on my wedding day, making sure it was perfect with my veil, she's colored it, let it grow, and chopped it off again.  However, I digress....lol!

What are some of the favorite things you like to do during the weekends?  Traveling?  Impromptu trips within driving distance?  Baking?  I am thinking about making some brownies I found on Pinterest: Death by Caramel Brownies.  Should I try them now or wait until fall arrives?  Maybe some of Pioneer Woman's Angel Sugar Cookies are really in order.  Or MAYBE some chocolate chip cookie sandwiches?  I don't know, but clearly I'm feeling the need to be slightly productive today, and not just by doing laundry  :0)
