What time is it?

Ok, it hasn't even been one complete day yet, and this time change thing has me confused. I keep looking at the clock to see what time it is, because my body keeps telling me that the clock is wrong. I love the summer time, but it is hard to deal with with kids. I know that they are not going to be ready to go to bed tonight when I am ready to put them to bed. I am dreading it already.
This week has been crazy. My mom had her back surgery (the 5th one) Thursday. It went well. Not a big deal really. She came over and stayed at my house for a few days to heal. I don't go to her house, because I am not a fan of her "boyfriend". So, she stayed here and tried to rest. As you may know, it is very, very difficult to rest with a house with a seven and four year old. They never sleep past 8 in the morning, and my mom could sleep all day. She is definitely a night owl.
Also, at this same time, Todd's sister, Tiffany was in town. She just had a baby, who is about six weeks old now. Then, his grandmother, and cousin came in from Virginia Beach to meet the new little man. So, needless to say, I have had my fill of family this week. I love Todd's sister (and new baby) to death, but the others are so hard to take sometime. I just don't deal well with any of Todd's family. I have tried, but I think I am done trying. I don't know what else to do. It seems like it just gets worse. Sometimes I wished I lived somewhere very far away.
But, all are gone now, and I think it is finally getting back to normal around here. This week looks pretty calm, and I hope it stays that way. The only thing about this week is that I can't work any, again. As you may know, I substitute at the primary school. The only problem is that I can only work when Todd is off work, and he has to work all week. We do not have a babysitter here, so it sometimes creates a problem. I would like to work more, but I guess I have to wait until next year when Molly is in kindergarten. I am just going to enjoy what little time I have left with her. Before I know it, it will all be over, and she will be the one wishing she lived far away from her family. Have a great week!!!!!!!!!!!!
