Goodness

Wow! Sometimes I look on here and see how long it's been since I've posted that I feel like giving up : (
Where do I even start? It's been so long since I've posted, and it makes me sad...sad that I don't make time for it...don't feel like I have time... whatever the excuse may be. Life has been a roller coaster lately, and I want to get off. It feels like I just run from one thing to the next and there's no down time. My brain is on overload. I read someone's Facebook post the other day. It said, "I'm bored." This was an adult with children. Really? Bored??? I can't remember the last time I was bored. 
I would love to attach a picture with this post but I currently have appr. 800 pics on my camera and most of those haven't even been downloaded on my computer yet.
So where do I start? I guess with the present. And we'll go from there.
* Bradley's first spring league game was today. The wind was ridiculous-even with that my boy came close to a home run over the fence! Gary is helping to coach the team. Spring league lasts 6 weeks and freshman baseball is the entire month of June.
*Gary is coaching Brennan's ball team as well. We are the Pirates (in honor of Uncle Dan). First game is April 26.
*I just booked our hotel in Arlington Virginia for our vacation to Washington DC this summer!!!!! We will head out on Friday July 8, arrive in Pittsburgh on Saturday to visit my brother- unfortunately the girls will be gone on a family reunion so we probably won't see them- go to a couple of Pirates/Cubs games, and head to DC on Monday morning. We will stay there for the week and drive home on Saturday and Sunday. I am so thankful to be able to do this trip. The boys are at great ages for remembering, and I hope they will enjoy all of the history involved! My family took a vacation there when I was about 9, and I still remember quite a bit from that trip.
*I hate subbing in kindergarten.
*I am exhausted. And another busy week begins. No promises, but I hope to be back sooner this next time. Lots of pictures need to be shared- lots of life needs to be documented before I forget it all... because after all, as my husband just recently told me, "I won't know when you get Alzheimers because it will be no different than what it is now."  Thanks honey, sad but it's true.
