Is there anywhere...

I wish I had someone who lived somewhere just far away enough to count as "near by"
I wish I had someone who lived someplace fun or at least perhaps peaceful. Maybe on a lake. Yet with air conditioning. Someone/someplace I could just pack up my creatures and head off for no particular reason. I kind of do. There is a place on the river. BUT that throws out the peaceful part. HMMM, Missouri river, 3 kids. NOT a good idea. Or perhaps I am too picky. Something about a spider inhabited trailer is not sounding delightful to me. Hubby however loves it. Fishing & beer, he knows no spiders or child drowning fears. So I sit and wish. and wish. and wish.

Not working. No place to go. No where to hide. And still too much crap to do. Only 1 more "free" day. Then I will be WAY out numbered. Why is there no "free summer things to do in Boring Omaha" in a Google search.

Things I do have planned for the summer:

Older One signed up at Library for some classes he will probably roll his eyes at me for.

Sprinkler Parks, gotta love free.

Leisure Water Parks, for when I can scrape up $10 for watery drownless joy.

Maybe a trip to Lincoln to the Children's Museum, as I like it better than ours. And I think even with gas to drive there, it's cheaper.

I even filled the little kiddy pool outside today. Well mostly cause the puppy likes it, but the kids will eventually realize it's full too.

Hell It's Almost Been a YEAR!

Let's see if I remember how to babble coherently. School is only in for 2 more days. I am in the process of filling a dumpster full of house crap in order to survive in my home longer.

Hmm. In the last year....

The Princess has gotten glasses.
Hubby is in need of glasses according to the eye doctor today (from a Princess eye poke almost a year ago)
Not sure I can have Hubby in glasses. Could be terribley strange to see. He is very light sensy, no geekey lens changey dimmy things either.
I need to go in for a new exam for my own eyeballs.
Both boys have fine beautiful healthy eyes. "knock on wood"
Older one, needs braces & attitude adjustment
Younger one, needs a muzzle.
Puppy needs a bunny. Ok, but she really wants one.


Let's see how long this will last.
