Maybe I ought to do this writing in the morning.  Then  wouldn't be to tired and mentally out of focus to think of something good to put down.  But having it fresh in mind is a good thing too, even though that is the only thing that is fresh.  Today has been a relative day of leisure, but doing nothing or next to it is as exhausting as doing something.  This evening we were up at Shelli's for Chase's 9th birthday and we were outside visiting. Sherri was explaining their summer schedule mainly due to Cortney's basketball camps and I got exhausted just hearing it.  I know that all of the kids have a pretty similar situation.  Heck, we had only one of the grand kids overnight (Jonah) and our night's sleep was affected.  It is a good thing that young parents don't have old people energy.  I really feel for those that I read about as grand parents that end up raising a new set of grand kids for one reason or another.  I know how hard that would be.  There are lots of things that being old is designed to teach us, but being young isn't one of them.  I'm doing my best at it, but for the most part I get to do 'old' things as an 'old' person.

I am so ready for a day to ourselves.  (That is until 3 of them get here tomorrow night for a 2 day trial.)
