Well it's official. I'm in my forties...
Good gravy, how the heck did this happen? Me...old! I had yet another birthday last month. Forty-one seems old and is the ultimate gray area. Like Louis CK said, "When you're forty, no one gives you credit for anything anymore. 'Yeah, that's what you're supposed to do, asshole. Just do your job.' And you're too young for anyone to say, hey, I helped a forty-one year old across the street." But the plus side is--as I've been told by my husband and affirmed by the people who literally take a step back and show me their molars when I tell them my age--apparently I don't look old. I've said it once and I'll say it again. "Black don't crack but beige don't age." Woot.

Testing, One, Two, Three...
Can anybody hear me?
Yes, I know. I'm a slacker. I'm sorry. Not that I think you've been sitting in front of your computer waiting for me to update again. I know we're all busy and have lives to live. It's just that mine prevents me from blogging. So sorry. Here's a new update on us.
John and I are good. The boys are good. The dog is hanging in there, although it appears he either had a stroke or his laziness has spread to the left side of his face. He still plays with the boys, goes nuts trying to lick his own Items Which Should Not Be Licked, and eats fine..it's just this weird winking thing. At least he's not drooling anymore.
As for me personally, I am a card-carrying member of the PTA, volunteer yearbook staff for Sean's elementary school, a den leader for Sean's cub scout pack and have started a cake business! Where do I find the time to do all that and still harrass the boys to finish their homework AND chide John for not taking the wireless earpiece out of his ear when he says, "What did you say?" Easy. I just neglect my blog.
Anyway, no more promises with this thing. Let's just take things slow and see how things develop. I won't promise to call, I make no promises about the future...there's no promise ring with a diamond chip in it with my blog address engraved on the inside for you to wear and show off to all your jealous girlfriends. Let's just keep this casual. In the meantime, you can see other blogs. It's okay. I'm seeing other ones too. ;)

Longest Potty Break Ever.
Okay, the length of time that's passed since my last entry has been so long its embarrassing so let's just say I went to the bathroom for a minute and now I'm back.
So...what'd I miss? :)
Let's see. The boys are older, taller, smarter and now sarcastic. I am older, shorter, and frazzled. But we do have the sarcastic thing in common so there's common ground there.
Sean is now a cub scout! He's doing really well, loves earning the belt loops and pins. He plays little league and is almost done with first grade!
Jack is four now and in preschool. He's very smart. Almost too smart. I'll explain later.
Tomorrow is Easter. We don't do the whole bloody nail through the hand thing. We just do the cute bunny visit and colored egg thing. No major plans as of yet. If we come up with any I promise you'll be the fifth to know. Night for now. Time to get these Easter baskets filled and set out!
