Many changes in my household this year. I have 7 children. Our oldest just had my first grandbaby tuesday. The last of the older batch is moving out in 2 weeks to go to college.And my baby is starting kindergarden this year. So this is the first time in 21 years that I will have time to myself each and everyday for 3 1/2 hours.I hope to get caught up on things like my sewing,crocheting and scrapbooking.Maybe start gardening again and get some closets cleaned out.Well thats fine for the first month of school, but what am I going to do the rest of the year?

Maybe I could actually have a few phone conversations without being interupted.Or actually take a bath without those infamous words "mom".Wait what will I be called if not mom or somebodies mom...what was my name before kids? I can't remember, maybe it will come to me,I will have plenty of time to think.

And of course I could spend more time on the internet. I can now look up all those questions my children have asked me over the years that I had no idea how to answer, but then again do I really need to know why a spider monkey is called a spider monkey? Does it eat spiders or something? And why is the sky blue and why is the grass green.Then again maybe I should just stick to crocheting.
