And just like that...August is gone!

Holy shit where did this month go???

Well another month down and thanks to rain forecast for the next 7 days we will not be spending our Labor Day weekend outside in the sun! Gotta love Iowa weather!! 

Things I have loved about August:

 

New Planner - I finally have things back on track after a crazy fun summer. My new Mom Agenda has been a blessing! It has taken the whole month to get it all set up and organized but it is worth it! Plus I just purchased these fun stickers that make organizing fun! Let's be honest adulting sucks but we all have to do it! So why not have fun while doing it!! 

 

School Starting - This has been awesome! Kids back in school, sports starting, crazy busy schedules and I haven't lost my damn mind yet! (says the mom 2 weeks into the school year) It is also nice that our oldest can now drive to school! If there is bad weather this winter (we live in Iowa it will fucking happen) there will be no call to mom to pick up kids! You can drive yourself home!!!!!!!!!!! Yay me!!!!!!!!!

 

Monthly Menu - Finally have my menu back. I know it sounds bat shit crazy to be happy about having a dinner menu, but I have to be honest it is so much easier. In the summer we slack off with the menu because everyone is here and there, and we have no idea what is happening every night. I miss the menu though. As a mom all this shit is on your shoulders. You have to make sure that everything is done, and everyone is happy. I don't know what the hell everyone wants to eat every night and I am not the type to go to the store every night. My full-time job is a receptionist/ secretary. So, I am on the phone with people all day. Usually they are not the happiest people. When I finally get off work the last thing I want to do is go into the fucking grocery store which is chaos just to get dinner. With the menu I NEVER have to ask what everyone wants to eat!

 

Honestly that is all I can think of because this month went so fucking fast!!! 

 

 

Looking ahead:

With August gone that can only mean one thing. We are getting closer and closer to the shitty cold weather! Some people LOVE winter. I don't think any of those people live in fucking Iowa! Don't get me wrong it is now football season, warm comfort food for dinner, baking, decorating for Halloween, Thanksgiving, sweatshirts and bonfires. Yes, the next couple months will be great..... but then we will have this!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

But...... Until then.....Bring on September!
