Drama Drama Drama

Do you ever just have those days (or weeks or months) where it feels like the drama never ends and one thing after another comes at you and you can barely keep up with your life??

Welcome to my April.

We started off the month with a nice visit from Niel's family and General Conference.  It was a great visit, but no matter how great the visit it will increase anyone's stress levels to have an extra 6 people in his/her house.  From there we went to...

...Connor puking (on me, in my bed, at 9:30 on a Sunday night)...
...to piles on laundry on Monday...
...to dentist appointments and moving pianos and swim lessons on Tuesday...
...to Olivia puking and being sick and picking up a loveseat on Wednesday...
...to an OB appointment and more swim lessons on Thursday...
...to me puking and sleeping on Friday...
...to camp meetings and Kelsey's birthday party on Saturday...
...to company for dinner and moving our entertainment center (while we had the help) on Sunday...
...to major house rearranging and a Mommy meltdown (yes, that would be me) on Monday...
...to more swim lessons and Kelsey choking on a piece of candy in the van and me jumping out to save her life and forgetting to put the van in park and therefore running the van into the fence at the YMCA on Tuesday...
...to produce co-op and the van's starter finally dying in downtown Oklahoma City and requiring a tow on Wednesday...

... and now we're back to Thursday again.  Fortunately, my taxes are filed and I'm stranded without a car today, so maybe things will start to slow down a little.

Or then again, maybe not.  We do have a few things coming up:

...more swim lessons today (and for the rest of the month of April) and hopefully a car repair...
...a special fund-raiser dinner tomorrow night with Olivia's new friend from swim class who came here a year ago from the Congo (not missing this one for the world!)...
...birthday parties and baptisms to attend on Saturday (and can Ben and I PLEASE have a date sometime?!)...
...church and choir practice on Sunday...
...starting our 8-week training class for Trixie on Monday...
...more swim lessons on Tuesdays and Thursdays...
...and it goes on and on and on...

Oh, and did I mention I need to call a plumber?
