Monday was my first day at a new job. Tuesday we had the earth quake on the east coast (and we're not very far from where it hit), and we offered the full-time nanny position to Ms. Sarah. Wednesday my babies went to 1st and 3rd grade :(....and had an amazing day! :). My hubby also got his new job offer on Wednesday, which is good because he was 1 week from being out of work. Thursday (today) I started freaking out about this hurricane coming, and I spent $100 at Target on canned goods! WOOPS! Then we got home to get a phone call that a tornado was spotted right where my husband was headed to go get a generator for the impending hurricane! Tomorrow we will need to tie down our trampoline and swinset, and bring all of our deck furniture inside...fun times!! Ugh! Luckily we have come out of all of this unscathed...but WOW! What a week!! Has your week been insane also?!

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Not that I am glad anyone else is having this crazy kind of week, but it's comforting to know you're not alone! I hope next week is smooth sailing for all of us!

Mine too - especially with the weather situation. We thought Irene was headed straight at us on Tuesday, so I ran around like a crazy woman buying $75 worth of can foods & snacks. Well now that it's not hitting SC, I can breathe a sigh of relief, but not until I have fulfilled my volunteering duties at school for the PTO! And on top of that I drove to dance, Brownies, and preschool orientation. Whew!

Hope you get a chance to take a breather, and stay safe!

Let's see. Last Sunday we came home from visiting my in laws in PA. It had rained heavily while we were gone and flooded. Had to rip up carpet, shop vac, etc etc etc. Then Monday night my 3 and 5 yos had stayed behind, sleeping over my in laws in PA and the 3 yo hurt her arm. Seemed OK and went to bed. MIL drove the kids home Tues. I spent ALL DAY Tues first to the ped, then sent for Xrays then sent to orthopedist. She broke her elbow. Got a cast, all that drama. Friday we had my daughters' bday party at the house, TONS of work. I guess these events were more than just this week but still. Grrr. Monday I'm going back to work after 4 months maternity leave. I will be in for half days and doing a babysitting swap with my next door neighbor so in addition to working, I will come home from 2 - 7 to care for 5 KIDS!!! AAAH!!!
The following week kid 1 goes back to school, week after that kid 2 goes back to school.....

Mine has been very similar (with the exception of the weather). New job for me, new responsibilities for my husband, older son off to kindergarten, younger son to daycare ...

My boys started school this week. At 4pm the day before school started, they had some sort of panic attack that they needed new clothes for school immediately. Lol! They had all summer to do this but decided just then they had to go. Both of them have spent two days trying to get their schedules adjusted and have had to go to cross country practice as well. We also took my older son to get a barrage of tests at the pulmonologist, because he decided to up and get exercise induced asthma out of the blue. My husband has been fighting his former employer over not getting paid and them causing problems with insurance. Oh, yea, and the cat came down with ear mites. And we still have the weekend to go.....
