Just some Ramblings...

By now I'm sure you have heard of the horrible earthquake that has happened in Haiti, I can't imagine your reading my blog without at least having at least one eye on the news. If you haven't given money yet and you plan to, please check out the charity's ranking on CharityWatch.org. In fact, I ask you do this with any donation you make. I do not care to whom you give your money, but I do care that it is used the best possible manner, not going to big salaries and the like.

I just read an article on Yahoo and there is some unrest concerning the upcoming presidential elections in Ukraine. Hopefully things will go smoothly and the Ukrainian people will choose the leader that is best suited for them in the new decade.

This week has been both long and short. I've been battling a nasty bout with the TMJ, migraines and insomnia. I'm starting to feel human today, yay just in time to do a mountain of laundry and try to catch up on a few chores. Hubby has been working massive 12 hour days the last two weeks and even on Saturdays so he has not been able to take up my slack. I don't even think little Igor has seen him as he's been in bed when Hubby gets home at night.

Otherwise things have been pretty quiet. It seems as if we will never get back into a steady routine at least in January. The kids attended school for two days and then were out two days for snow, today is early release so Igor does not atttend at all, they are out of school Monday for MLK and we will pull them for our Dells trip for a couple of days as well. Ug, I don't think Sonny Boy's morning issues will ever resolve without a consistent routine forming. I don't remember getting out of school so often when I was a kid, they seem to have at least one early release day a month not to mention the various holidays etc. The kids also get really odd holidays that I don't EVER remember getting out of school for, Veterans Day, Presidents Day, and some odd holiday called Casimir Pulaski Day in March. I have a history degree and have no idea who the guy is, guess I should google.

Well I'm not getting laundry or any other chore done sitting here pecking away and watching Sesame Street.
