That crazy thing called real life. . .

Oh my goodness! I can't believe I'm posting on here! I feel like I've been gone forever and I am so sorry!! Long story short, my children started school in early August and ever since about mid-July I've been volunteering at their school. I basically am living at their school. It's wonderful and fulfilling but I get home and I'm so exhausted that all I want to do is lay on the couch and watch this guy:

Can you blame me? lol! It's like the movie "Groundhog Day." Same thing over and over again. Wake up at 5:45, go to school, work till the afternoon, come home, help kids with homework, cook dinner, spend some time as a family, get kids ready for bed, and then I fall on the couch and watch the gorgeous Colin O'Donoghue. 

But my time requirement at school is becoming less and less and it looks like real life is finally settling down. Yay! I was even able to open up the Sims game and take some pictures a little while ago.

So here's the deal. This story and A Ray of Sunshine aren't going anywhere. I will write these stories for as long as it takes to tell them. But there may be times during this school year that I disappear for a little bit because my work load has increased (Or because Colin has distracted me with his ability to make guyliner look good). But fear not, I will always return with new chapters, to read your stories, and talk on aim (sorry aim friends! I  miss you all!).

I'm hoping to have a new Listening and Ray chapter out in the next couple days. I hope they are worth the wait and I can't thank you enough for reading them and for your patience.
