Quick catch up on my ever tilting planet

I have been MIA from my blog as of late. Life just has a way of sneaking up and grabbing you around the waist and whisking you off onto the dance floor and not letting you go until you completely fall down from exhaustion.

So April finds me squeezing in a quick post. I've just returned from a workshop and was able to visit with my Mom. It always makes me a little sad to leave. I wish we could move back and live near her. However the Marine Corps is still in charge of where we live. Maybe in a year or two.

The Marine never blew up, but instead did a marvelous job running the house while I was gone. he always does though. He also started getting the office straightened out. An awful task I've been putting off for a while.

Recruit one is moving ever closer to graduation. She has been worked hard the last couple of weeks helping with the little boys and the house. I think she is about done playing mommy.

Recruit two spent spring break at my Mom's house working. He had a great time digging holes for the posts for a barn, driving the tractor, and he only flipped the go cart over once and dinged himself in the head with a stake driver! It was a somewhat injury free vacation, except for the pinky he almost ripped off when the go cart flipped over.

Recruit three made the cheer squad at her middle school again. She still surprises me with the whole cheer thing.

Recruit 4 is being a pill in school, but things at home seem better. I'll be glad when the school year ends for him.

Recruit 5 and 6 are well and just as funny as always.

It's still Lacrosse season and baseball season has started. That means we are headed in a hundred different directions. Plus my mom and sister and her kids are coming for the graduation in June. I have to start cleaning my house yesterday! I'm not kidding.

The Marine would like to just load up most of the garage contents and take them to the dump. That's not the way I would like to clean, so I'm sure we will have words soon.

Otherwise life has been busy and has been good. The recruits are all in school and The Marine at work! I'm going to contemplate a shower or perhaps just crawl back in bed, just for a minute though... I promise.
