Well, for the 3 people who read this ... I hope you have fun!!
I must confess that I suffer from Post-Vacation Depression Disorder. I have had too much fun (if that's possible) on the two vacations I've had this summer, and when I get home, my body and mind are just in a blue funk!! I think it's the minimum responsibilities weighing on me during vacation, and the novelty of a day free and open, without obligations, that may cause the PVDD crash after I arrive back home.
Add to this my resurgence of insomnia, mild obsessions with Twilight and Patrick Wilson, and avoidance of the inevitability of potty training Brynna, school starting in 3 weeks, and a house that needs constant attention, and you have a perfect storm of PDD (Parenting Dissociative Disorder). What are all these ailments? Once the PVDD sets in, I then start doing all I can to avoid or postpone my parenting responsibilities and the house and kids go to pot!
They say the first step to healing is identifying and owning your problem -- well, I am finally taking my house, life and kids back! I didn't get to the gym today, but baby steps Y'ALL!
We have enjoyed the company of Curtis' brother, Erick, and his family since last night. He is flying back to South Carolina tonight, while his wife, Christina, and kids head up to visit his parents and play with cousins. It's always nice to have visitors, if only for the kick-in-the-butt to tidy up the house!
I know I have yet to publish any of my pictures from this summer, but maybe I'll save it for a nice Festivus Surprise!! (You think I'm joking?)
Went to see "The Dark Knight" on Sat. at IMAX with Curtis, and my parents, sister Sonya and brother John. HOHLEE CRRAAPP!! That movie ROCKS!! Loved it on IMAX!
Well, I am getting bored with myself so I will sign off --
Love And Laughs -LAL-

I love the feeling of getting things back under control after a vacation. It is always accompanied with that PVDD though...
