I can't wait for summer vacation

We are on the last day of a four day weekend thanks to President's Day. It seems like the kids have had quite a few days off lately for one district meeting or another. All I know is it is going to be a very long day with the Schmidt kids.

They woke up antagonizing one another and JG screaming, screaming and screaming. Little man seriously screams like a girl, it is this high pitched shrill and he just doesn't let up. AE doesn't seem to mind the assault on her eardrums because she just keeps dishing out whatever JG is screaming about. We are time out #2 and it isn't even 9:30.

We are going over to Shel's house at 11:00 for lunch and to share our joy with others, hopefully it isn't contagious.

I love your blogs new look! Your kids are so cute, of course they aren't screaming in this pic! I can't believe how much your daughter looks like you. Hope you ened up having a good time over at Shelly's.

Ahhh, Susan, you assumed it would be so much different here? haha. As I told Susan, we also had a lovely morning. Sawyer threw a raging fit at Walmart when I wouldn't give him a donut so I had to march through the store to the checkout with him screaming. People looked at me with mixtures of pitty and concern (for me). Thankfully, since it was WM I didn't get any "can't you shut that kid up" looks. They'd all been there! Ahhhh yes, now I remember, this is why I work outside the home. hehe.

Gainfully employed

I heard back last night from Cargill , I start back into the world of the gainfully employed as an independent contractor on October 8 th . My old client, who will now be my new client, Jeff wrote: I'm thrilled we get to work together again. This is the most important project our business unit has taken on in a lot of years so I feel a lot better knowing you're going to be part of it. OK now I'm nervous. Eeek - the most important project? Whoa, better bring the A game, but you know I am excited - scared - but am ready to go. I have so much to do before the 8 th , gotta get the list together to make the most of my kid free week (now that litte man is at daycare in the a.m.). Let's see: 1) Paint basement. 2) Purge house of clutter - how can we accumulate this much crap? 3) Goodwill and library drop off - Maple Grove Library is taking donations until Oct. 6 th !!! 4) Get the yard ready for winter - should I plant more bulbs? 5) Put basement back together - IKEA run ma...

Z is like for Zodiac

Shelly and I went to the movie Zodiac last night. The theater was nearly packed with mostly men and couples, so it was a bit obvious when two teenage girls talking on cell phones walked into the movie 20 minutes late. Shelly turned to me, "Why would you even come to a movie like this if you are 20 minutes late?" I agreed especially since they had already missed the first victims meeting their demise and the opening which told the viewer this was a true story. You just had to know they were going to be lost the rest of the movie, plus the only reason they were probably there was to see Jake Gyllenhaal . The movie was very good, one of the best I have seen since The Departed , I read the book and the prime suspect was much creepier on the screen than I imagined in real life. At the end of the movie, Shelly stopped by the ladies room and I waited outside. The two teenage girls we saw walk in late also went to the ladies room with cell phones glued to their ears already. At our...
