Time

I was ready to leave for work last night, but before I go I always give my family a hug and kiss and tell them I love them. So I was saying good-bye to my husband and he says "When are we going to have time alone together"? He is so sweet and I do miss him when I am at work. We work opposite shifts with different days off, so sometime it is tough, but you do what you have to do. It is hard to "go out on a date" when you have different days off. There are days he gets off at a decent hour, but I don't like to leave my kids by themselves even though my daughter is 16 and my youngest son is going to be 13 and it isn't that I don't trust them because I do it's just that I worry about them. YES I am one of those worrier! I can't help it I just worry about everything. When it comes to my children wow they even tell me "Mom you just worry to much". I can't help it! My mom was the same way though. I remember a few years ago when she came over to stay with my kids, I was leaving for work and had a sweater on and she told me that I should wear my coat. I told her I was fine not to "worry". I guess there are a lot of things we pick up from our parents and then there's other things we did differently. I guess I got off track a little, I think my husband and I really do need to have a date night to get out even if it is to go out to dinner just the two of us. Things are so much different when you don't have your parents around any more and I really do miss them and sometimes it is hard to cope, because you realize that you are getting older and that is scary sometimes. It seems too that the older you get the more time just seems to fly by, I mean it is October already! I guess this blog doesn't have no rhythm or reason just kind of going with what I am feeling right now.

On another note, it is sprit week at high school so they have different themes for each day. Yesterday it was class color day so them were to wear that color to school only my daughter forgot. I think today was tropical day or something and one day is each class has a country they are to dress at so I am not sure how that will work out! Friday is homecoming and Saturday is the dance. I think my daughter wants to go, but I would want her to go with a friend. I know there I go being a worry wart again! Dad well have to take her and pick her up if she decides to go because I work Saturday night. We will see how it all goes. That is it for my blog today.
