good riddance, september

When I was off this summer, occasionally, a whole day would go by and I’d look back and realize I didn’t do much.  I’m sure I folded some clothes, played some games, and changed some diapers, but overall, it was just a lazy day. 

Well, I haven’t had one of those days in a long time.  And I missss them.

Here’s what my calendar looked like for September.


I did not stop going.  I missed my babies.  I missed sleep.  I missed the start of all our favorite TV shows.  I missed grocery shopping.  I missed coupons.  I missed blogging.  I missed friends.  Oh, and sleep, I missed lots and lots of sleep.

Last month was exhausting.

I don’t think I’ve ever said that before.  I’ve had exhausting days.  Definitely a week or two that was exhausting, but never an exhausting month.

I never want to have a month like that again.  When I was at school, I was thinking about being at home and missing my kids.  When I was at home, I was thinking about work that needed to be done or what I needed to do at school. 

And apparently Thirty-One is all the rage and everyone wants to book parties.  Which, in theory, sounds good, but it just takes time away from my family, so that’s a little bittersweet.

I’m so glad it’s officially October.  And not just because it’s my birthday month, although that does help.  I get two of October’s four weeks off.  It’s Halloween which I LOVE.  It’s turning cooler and we get to have fires.  And the leaves are changing.  And we get to eat chili.  And it’s not September anymore.  Woohoo.
