So Back when it was still summer-- {I still can't believe it's fall already- where did summer go?!}
We got two more little kitty's--- Meiko our so cute other kitten as soon as we moved disappeared and I have no idea what in the world happened to her :( I was sad - I tried not to get attached but she was so cute and such a good kitty- anyhow I wanted to get another kitty so Brynley would be able to help with the "loving and getting them used to being held and treated by kids" before she was at school all day long.
When I went to get the kitty it had a sibling and given the luck I already had I thought man maybe it wouldn't hurt to have two. {They were so so so so cute together! We named them Gus and Lulu} But sadly the stinkin same thing just happened to the boy kitty Gus- {of course the cuter one and the one that had more personality} Just up'd and disappeared one night never to be seen or heard from again :( And we had it for close to two months now and it was fine, and never wandered-- I really am stumped as to what the stink is happening to all the kitty's that I like?!!
anyhow I'm still glad that we have at least Lulu and she's growing on me a bit now :)
I must admit that for not being a kitty person I just love to see how loving my little girls are with them-- and how good of kitty's they are-- I'm am starting to like cats a little- at least outside cats :)
Another thing that seemed to happen way to fast was the kids started back up in school
Course I won't complain-at all! being down to one chillld-ren a day is so so so nice :) I can go shopping again- when I feel good- and it's just so much easier--
except for the homework-- ugh I hate the homework and that for some reason all day of school isn't enough- they aren't pushing them enough- and they always have at least half an hour to an hour of homework when they get home!? I mean really! I try not to be negative about it but I hate the way all the schools are forced now to push so hard with the little kids- they kill all desire for learning when it's all stressful and hurried- but I also don't believe home school is the answer to it all either {at least not for me and my kids} -- Kinda a stuck position :) but we do what we can with the homework and I try not to feel super guilty when my kids have just had enough and don't get it done-- cuz really if that teacher calls me to complain she/he might get a bit of a piece of my mind on how I don't think homework should be tied to their grades-but ya we do want to avoid that :) anyways homework rant over now... sorry bout that :)
Anyways probably the only fun decorative thing I've done lately with our house and threw together a quick back to school mantle :) I made it before I started feeling to sick and meant to add more but never felt good enough and now it's already time to switch it up for some yummy fall goodness.
I know, I know to the big F does not really go with a school thing :) {hey kids go earn a great big F- but like I said not feeling well and never did change it :) }
I followed a book wreath pattern from here, and It was so easy and pretty fun to make-- I'd just bought a cheap biography book on Abe Lincoln from our local D.I.
I think I'll have lots of fun decorating our mantle eventually - I'm kinda excited actually to get all my fall stuff out now and see what I got :) I love fall! but I will dearly miss summer this year-- it seriously felt like we didn't have much of one
Anyways that's a little bit of what's been going on-- {sorry I was such a slacker and now have a million posts :)-- oh well I guess }
