Ahhh, it's August already. Good ol' August. Wonderfully hot, and humid August. My birthday is on Sunday the 5th. I'll be 41. Not doing anything special other than church (which IS special in itself).
Got our daughter moved back home safe and sound after a 20 hour day. We got to Atlanta, had some lunch and went to get the U-Haul truck. Kristin missed the exit (wasn't sure on directions) soooooo, we ended up driving ALL the way around Atlanta! So we get the truck (finally) and get her stuff loaded. And my child, I swear. She left that apartment looking awful. Food in the cabinets, the fridge, nothing was cleaned. Uggghhh!
Left around 7 that evening and on the way home it stormed. So we're driving about 35 mph in the blinding rain. My knuckles turning white gripping the steering wheel, me leaning forward, eyes trying to see the truck in front of me. Oh yeah, it was fun!! Got home at 1:30 that morning and crashed. Then our wonderful stinkin' son Marcus decided he wanted to get me up at 6 o'clock!!!! Whut!!!! Anyway, glad we are done with that.
Next I will be taking him to see a doctor so that they (the infamous they) can determine if our son really deserves to be on disability. lol Don't ya just love the government.
School starts here on the 20th and we are sending Marcus. Nathan will continue to be homeschooled and is in 4th grade. We've been lazy this summer regarding school and need to catch up on reading and a bit of math. I would like to start school next week maybe.
Marcus should be moving this month as well. His home is about 4 miles away so that's a relief to us. I'll miss my boy, but hopefully the stress I deal with will lessen somewhat. There are just some days when I am surprised that I made it through another day.
Anyway, he's quiet so I need to see what he's up to. God bless!
