In all my 16 years of being a parent, I have never been as busy having a home schooled daughter and 2 boys in junior high. Of course it probably wouldn't be so bad if I didn't volunteer for so many things, but I just can't help it. I have the time and it makes no sense to just be doing nothing. I get to see my kids at school, get to know their teachers which has helped rid my youngest of bully issues. I volunteer for Cypress Cares, a wonderful organization that packs and ships bits of home to servicemen/women overseas. Cypress Cares is one of my favorite as a child of a Vietnam Vet, I feel this need to make sure all our men and women know how much they are appreciated. I am also a wife of a fireman, and a member at a different fire department myself. I'm pursuing my EMT actually just gearing up now to take the NR test. pfew I'll be so glad when that is over. Right now I do the website for the department along with --- I almost forgot I do the website for another organization I volunteer with called Krystas Karing Angels. This wonderful group supports families who have lost loved ones due to drunk driving. So yeah, my husband says I'm busy, but I couldn't be happier these are all causes I care so much about.
Of course my kids always come first. I don't want to miss anything and since they are still willing to share how could I refuse?!! lol I'm so blessed.
Right now trying to keep up to date on the fires in Texas, the layoff's of some fireman and police and end of the year hooplah for the kids. Um yeah, I'm gonna be busy for a while:)
