Not a lot of time to blog this morning, since Patrick is taking the laptop with him to do some stuff at work. But I'll give it a solid five minutes. How's that? Yeah, kinda lame, I know. Sorry. If you want, you can buy me another laptop, so I can blog at all hours of the day. It's just that easy, people! You could make it happen!

No takers? Oh well.

Okay, now on to the obligatory complaining about the August heat. This is the point in the summer when I begin to panic a little-- oh. my. gosh. Will it ever cool off? Even the nights are hot and sticky. I know the sun "supposedly"** goes down, but I'm beginning to get suspicious. Yeah, it's dark. But that heat is coming from somewhere, and somebody is responsible for it. Is it you, Moon? Are you getting an attitude with us? Do I need to come up there? See, I just don't think the Moon has it in him. I think the Sun is up to some funny business.

And I've gone on about that long enough. Just trust me- it's hot.

In other news, we've found a carpool partner for Wrenn's school. I'm soooo excited. It takes 30 minutes to get her to school, so I end up on the road for 2 hours every day going back and forth. Guh. So, this is great- it saves me a lot of driving, time, and money. Huzzah!! Wrenn is really loving school. Her teacher is fantastic, and she's learning a lot every day. It wears her out though- she's so tired in the afternoons, and a bit grumpy. Hopefully she'll adjust to the schedule in the next few weeks.

Eli and Luke seem to be settling in to the routine at home. Eli is extra lovey to me, which is a special treat. It's hard to get him to slow down enough for hugs and kisses, so when he barrels into me for a little loving, I eat it up. He's got a soft spot for Mom.

Well, I'm getting the "Are you almost done?!" look from Patrick, so I must bid you adieu. (I still can't believe he wants to use the computer for something as banal as work!!)

Have a great day everybody!
