Well, the craziest 5 weeks of the year are coming to an end. Starting with Nov. 18th (Matthew's birthday) and ending on Christmas Day, I have the boys' birthdays, Dad's and Grandma's birthday, various Christmas parties, room mother duties, Thanksgiving and Christmas. I always joke that starting with Matthew's birthday, the race begins and I don't sleep until January! The stress and busyness have started to take their toll this week; however, and I am feeling like I am running on fumes. I feel like I am crawling to the finish line!
I have spent much of today running errands and dragging my poor kids store to store. I bought a new mailbox and lantern today. We are having a difficult time getting in touch with the girl who wrecked our old one. The only contact information I had on her was her mother's place of employment. The mother has been avoiding our phone calls the past two days and finally called me last night at almost 11 o'clock, not to apologize, but to gripe me out for bothering her at work. Apparently the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. I was raised with the value of taking responsibility for my actions drilled into me and I find it amazing when others don't share that same value. I will keep you posted...
Matthew's class Christmas party was yesterday and went well. I am happy that tomorrow is the last day of school and I can enjoy all the kids home for a while.
Had a thought.

Fumes...I don't even know if I have those at this point. I am looking forward to enjoying Saturday and Sunday when they get here though!!
I too have been in a situation where I have been shocked by someone's complete lack of values and character.
