At an impass

I like to take the path of least resistance and I hate to step on anyone's toes, and just like i hate being committed to someone elses schedule I know that others would hate being committed to mine. So for this reason i think I'm gonna drop the only fun class I've ever signed up for because it requires me to find someone to watch my cute kids, but as cute as my kids are they are also almost 3 and 8 months old and they need attention and someone who wants to watch them. It'll be nice when Jared is able to be home with them and I can have more freedom with my school schedule but I think for now I'd better choose something online to replace the drawing I class. I'm not posting this for volunteers I'm just posting this to get some of my feelings out :( But hey what mom hasn't made sacrifices? Thanks for letting me be a boob.

Here i am





































So a lot has happened between here and now, i just kinda got burned out with the blogging and needed a break. So Its July and were in the process of refinancing our home and of course these things take longer than anyone would hope but if were lucky in the end we will have a smaller mortgage payment. Konnors crawling all over the place... its an army crawl but he is super fast with it... and of course he thinks he should eat everything he comes across, i feel distracted all of the time and I'm pretty sure he has a guardian angel following him around because I'll come across things on the ground that shouldn't be eaten so I'll pick it up and it'll be wet with slobber but not ingested so hopefully that angel doesn't mind picking up where I'm obviously failing!

I got this crazy idea that i wanted to take some classes, specifically some art classes and i thought the college would be a good place to learn and so i registered for fall semester at Weber state and today i got my acceptance letter! Hopefully all will go well with financial aid because last time i checked i didn't have 2 grand in my back pocket. So I'm registered for 13 credit hours and I'm taking 2 nutrition classes, 2 art classes and a health class. All of the classes are online except for one drawing class which will be on Tuesdays and Thursdays and I'm still trying to square away where my children will be at that time because driving back and forth from Ogden to pleasant view and Weber state will be a booger. I don't know that i will be blogging much once classes do start, hopefully i can focus and get decent grades, right now I'm pretty excited about it all.
My triathlon went good, the weekend it was on was a horrible weekend and because of the cold i had a cold and was wishing that i didn't need to blow my nose every ten minutes. The water was a cool 59 degrees and i was a dork and didn't test ride my bike before the race other than to make sure the seat height was okay so i learned some valuable obvious lessons. The run was fine and we were all really lucky that we didn't get rained on.

Thats pretty much all for now, have a wonderful day!
