Like Sands through the hour glass...

Okay, so I'm not really one to just pontificate on and on. But today was just a weird day. Before I knew it, it was 3:00 in the afternoon and I just couldn't believe it and now that I look at the clock, wow it's 11:10. Where did my day go? I had a great productive morning. Got to visit with my great friend, Robin , who by the way is moving to Fort Dodge. Hello Robin!!! Thank goodness for blogs, we check each others, so it will be nice to have that way of keeping in touch. It's always nice to go over and say "Hey, I read on your blog,so and so and such and such" But I really wish them the best on their new endeavors in Fort Dodge.
Well after Robin left, then my husband took off for the wilds of youth conference. He was soooo excited (LOL). And then it was like my day went into Fast Forward. I was suppose to have a couple of things happen, but they just fell through, baby sit and piano lesson. Aimee came over to drop off some things for a baby shower I'm having on Sat and we chatted for a moment. It was good to see her, they were leaving tomorrow for WV. I cleaned the house a little bit more, getting stuff ready for Sat. Before I knew it, it was 3:00 in the afternoon and I never put Whitney down for a nap. But she seemed okay with it. So I pressed on, called my mom and sister which I needed to because, I have not talked with them in a while. So I assured them both that I was still alive and we were good. Mom told me that they have a "Fairy Ring" growing in their yard (which is rare and a picture in the paper might be coming) Abbie is good and is going to enroll her youngest in preschool, wise choice, I think, and all is good there, I really enjoyed my conversations with them.
Then I needed to make dinner and find Olivia's shin guards for her much anticipated soccer game. Dinner got out of the oven just in time for me to pack it up and take to the soccer fields to enjoy as we watch Olivia in her much anticipated return to soccer. (Last two games rained out, something about Thursdays) Get to the soccer fields under ominous black sky. Parents, coaches, kids determined to play... practice kicking goals 20 mins... set up chair, pull out dinner... Audrey, "Mom I want cotton candy"... Mom,"eat your dinner first"...sprinkle, sprinkle, sprinkle... everyone line up let's play ball... "LIGHTNING"... soccer game cancelled and now I have one very sad Olivia.
Well afterwards, the girls went to my friend Shelley's house to play with the guinea pig and her girls. While Allie and Shelley went to dinner (Shelley's girls are 10 and 12 and Shelley's husband was also hijacked by youth conference so it was okay, and I just noticed that I was speaking of myself in the third person and that usually really bothers me when other people do that. Anyways went out to dinner had good food and good conversation, then came back to Shelley's house and got sucked into playing the Wii, I really like those games. So far she has hooked me on guitar hero and dance dance revolution (DDR for those of you who are in the know) Tonight we got into, In the Band, this game has guitar, drums and vocals, which I thought was soooo cool. Because we all know what an awesome voice I have, (LOL) I have not heard of a lot of the different songs and I'm not really a rocker, but it was sure fun to try. Left a little bit later and forgot to pick up some dishes from Aimee's because it was just too late and I didn't want to ring her door bell at 10:00 at night. Now I know, she knows, I'm a flake. So to those of you who will be seeing her at the Hartman reunion tell her I'm sorry, it just got too late. And besides she needed to sleep because it will be a long drive for her tomorrow. Well like I said, I'm not really one to go on and on, but I guess these were just some things that needed to be said, now I should go to bed because tomorrow is another day and I really don't want it slip by like today did.
