hello?

Is it me you're looking for?

My sister-in-law texted me this weekend and asked if everything is ok because I hadn't blogged in almost a month.

I guess it has been that long.

Would you believe that I've been on a whirlwind surprise vacation to all the gorgeous places in Europe I have always wanted to go? No?

Would you believe that I've been abducted by aliens and used for weird alien-science research? No?

Would you believe that I've been on a world tour with an up and coming girl band? No?

Would you believe that school started and I'm working on finding a groove? Yes? That is so much more believable, even if it is less exciting.

Because of a certain middle schooler's schedule, we are leaving the house an hour and a half earlier in the morning. This means that my usual morning blog time is now spent driving to a middle school then to my school and being there earlier than I'm used to.

And then, the first week of school always kicks my butt. All that time trying to winningly convince a group of newbie 2nd graders that I'm the boss, while making them think it was all their idea, is rough on a gal.

So, in case you were wondering too, I am indeed just fine.  I have some really cute first day of school pictures to show you soon. But right now, it's bedtime!
