Ten on Tuesday

1. Going back to work today was not as bad as I thought it would be. I love my job and the people I work with so it was easy to get lost in the fun instead of complaining about working.

2. Tomorrow might be a different story. Colin has been anxious the last four days about going back to school. There have been a lot of tears and hyperventilating. Cam has started to follow suite so it is likely that both boys will be in bad shape tomorrow.

3. There are 94 school days left. (Yipee!)

4. My kids like watching American Pickers. Strange.

5. I took Colin to the orthodontist today for his 6 month follow up from last summer. We were told that anytime we are ready, Colin can get braces on his bottom front teeth. What?!? He's can't be that grown up. We decided to wait until he has a further need for braces (which he will).

6. What is it with boys and wrestling? Why can't boys keep their hands off of each other? Along the same lines, why is farting so funny?

7. I need a good book series to read. I'm pretty versatile in what I like to read. (Twilight, Hunger Games, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings...). Any suggestions?

8. I love the library. I'm such a geek. I'm not sure I could ever own a kindle.

9. Our Christmas tree came down in record time this year. I knew that Colin would be anxious if I asked for his help taking down decorations. When Steve took the boys swimming on Sunday I saw an opportunity to race through the house like a crazy lady and get everything put away. By the time they got home, the only thing left to put away was the actual tree since I could not get it apart by myself. The strategy seemed to work because Colin shrugged his shoulders and decided that he would look forward to the decorations going back up next year.

10. Colin is an absolutely amazing Lego designer. I think he has found his "thing". I wish that Lego was an actual subject at school. It would sure give him something to look forward to everyday.
