Tyler starts school on Monday. I have mixed feelings about it. I know school is good and it beats him watching way too much tv. However, I like the care free summer days of swimming at the pools, acting like a teen at Magic Waters and being flexible with dinner and bedtime.

Zumba during the week is right at dinnertime and eating dinner together as a family is important to us but I also love zumba.

Well, I better get to bed so I wake up for zumba in the morning.

Summer went by pretty fast as always. It's pretty much my favorite season. I love to swim and even more so love swimming outdoors under the sun. It's just so relaxing. I didn't get out as much as I would have liked but I can't complain.
Tyler got to go to summer camp for overnights twice this summer. He really has a great time. He tends to latch on to the camp counselors though. I suppose that's okay. Tad and I took a little break from cooking when he wasn't home. It was kind of nice.
Sunday, we are going to go to Magic Waters one final time before they close for the season. It should be fun.

My vacation is over now. I went back to work yesterday. I had a pretty good week off and enjoyed the time off but now I am going to be broke. I am tired of being broke.  I been working on eating healthier and working out for quite sometime now and don't feel like I can afford it much longer. I am not the kind that can go hungry and I need low calorie foods like yogurt, string cheese and plenty of fruits to keep me within my calorie goal. I am kind of upset right now. It just seems like we can't get our act together and figure out a way to make things work with all the bills getting paid.
Today, I sent Tad off to pay 20 dollars for a dresser that needs a bad paint job and I am going to try to make it nice for Tyler. I want to make things easier for him to find things on his own and organize and label his dresser drawers. It seems like even a splurge of a dresser is really too much for us.
I would like to take Tyler to see a movie before school starts but the reality is that I just can't afford it.

Sorry for ranting on about this. I just feel like letting of some steam. I am gonna go make some orange honey muffins that I wanted to make last week but I lost the recipe.
