Showing signs of neglect

I've been in a bit of a posting slump lately. I'm sure that having the kids here for school and then having to share the computer and then trying to do any household chores I feel compelled to complete have absolutely nothing to do with said slump.

Then again, it might be the fault of the gorgeous 72 degrees, sunshine and balmy breezes we're experiencing. That darn weather keeps dragging us outside to distractions like parks, the library and the backyard. Today, it made us run up and down dirt bike hills, pretending we were on battle fields until 2 injuries and an urgent potty break interrupted the war.

It's shameful, really, the excuses I am dredging up for the neglect I am inflicting you all with. Better call the BPS* though, because I don't see much rain in the forecast and the kids seem to have a teacher** that has assigned actual work. She's so annoying.


* Blog Protective Services.

** I'm actually LIKING that title...

I had that blog neglect thing going on all summer. I was outside with the girls playing...or I couldn't muster the energy to boot Shea off the computer...or it was hot...or I was generally cranky because I'm not a happy pregnant person. I knew it was bad when my Mom started making snarky comments about my not having posted anything new lately.

Do your kids have to get the "teacher" back to school presents? All the teachers I know really like wine... :)

The weather is going to be keeping you indoors soon enough. Have at it. Have fun in the sun.

My blog's been feeling neglected lately too. I like your excuses better. I'd much rather be playing outside than working from home after the kids are in bed!

No playing outside over here. You know that big fire raging in California? We can see the smoke from our house and have had ashes fall on our car. I could actually smell the smoke today, and I live a distance away from it. I walked to pick up my son at preschool and my eyes were burning before I even got there.

Oh No! Hope the rain comes soon and the fires abate. Be safe...

Sounds like a great reason for blog neglect. Better than mine, which is that I'd rather watch tv in the evening.
