Crazy, Busy May

I just realized it has been nearly a month since I posted anything on my blog. Let's just say that May has been a crazy, busy month. I still don't really have time for a nice long post, but I'm going to give a run down of my month so someday when I look back on here I will be able to feel some sense of accomplishment.

Weekdays were busy with dance classes and helping my mom get to appointments and errands. On various weekends we had dance pictures, competition at Lagoon, and preparing for the studio yard sale. Oh and an extra dance performance in there somewhere. In between these activities lots of hours went into studio planning and writing  notes and announcements for all of the above mentioned studio activities, and planning for recital. (I will save recital planning details for another post). In between all of that I tried to play catch up on taking care of the house. Oh, and caring for my kids too. And maybe seeing Mike once a week. (The poor guy has been such a good sport and my kids are lucky to eat because of him).

May has also been exceptionally rainy. The weatherman announced with excitement today that we had broken the record for the rainiest spring ever (or at least since 1860) in SLC. Between my schedule and the rain I still haven't planted any of my flowers that I excitedly purchased the first week of May and then plopped in the flower beds where they are still sitting in their containers.

We will race through this week with more preparing for recital, dress rehearsal, and the recital itself on Wed. And then throw in a few more doctor appointments and errands for mom, and shopping for and helping Zach get ready to leave for scout camp next Sunday. Oh yeah. I think I also have a daughter with a birthday in a week. I might need to do something about that too. And I might just get those darn flowers planted at weeks end if the weather cooperates and I am awake enough to do it. 

One more week and then I plan to take my foot off the accelerator and creep down to a nice, slow 5mph for a few days and get wrapped up in my family and reading some good books. I can't wait!
