Wednesday: Baseball practice, clogging practice and tryouts, dinner, temple interviews and Mutual, Home Teaching
Thursday: Baseball game, Soccer Game, Temple interview, mow neighbors lawn, ship some figurines, fix dinner
Friday: Date night, and some other stuff I think I forgot, fix dinner for kids
Saturday: Youth Temple Trip to Boise all day long, mow lawn, plant garden do yard work around the house and clean up the disaster that happened all week.
Sunday: FAST SUNDAY!!!!! Meetings, meetings, Fast offerings, High Adventure Meeting.
Ok, am I through? No, I still have many other things that I just couldn't fit into the day. Do I sound a little overwhelmed?

I totally know where you're coming from. Can you imagine being a single parent?
Hey, can you fit in doing me a favor? tee hee
I am trying to take a new approach... Enjoy it. It will end and you will miss your kids. What does it really matter if you don't make it to all of those things.
I use to get frustrated like that all of the time, but I decided I was the one to make all of those choices. What was I complaining about. My kids were healthy enough to play sports, I was enjoying the comfort of the gospel, we are self sufficient. Clint these are all blessings. Take them as such, not as burdens.
I know you probably wanted empathy. I usually do. But I looked at others I was complaining to, and they didn't have healthy kids, or money to have them in sports, or the gospel, or a job. Most of my burdens are self imposed.
I certainly understand, I am in the throws of the same schedule. Smile. Life is to precious. Sure love you, and wish you were near so I could see your kids play soccer and baseball.
