Alive and kicking...

Did you think I had fallen off the face of the earth? Well, I'm still alive and kicking. This has been the CRAZIEST week of all time. Reader's Digest condensed version: over 40 quarts of salsa, teaching 4 scrapbook classes, 3 day team retreat this Thurs, Fri and Sat that I am c0-hosting, speaking at a conference on Sunday, organizational meeting for the women's organization I am president of, football game, motherhood, wifehood (is that a word?), need I go on? I am excited about all of the things that are happening and love my life, but boy would I love to be bored for a day or two! In fact, I think I will schedule one day of boredom soon. A day in pajamas with a good book and a movie or two with a dose of chocolate on top sounds heavenly.
