- I can't believe I was pulled over as a suspected DUI while driving to SLC this weekend. With the whole fam in tow. Yes. A blog post is coming with details included. SHEESH.
- My bed is full of laundry. Clean laundry. My house is being taken over by laundry. Dirty laundry. It's amazing that one little body can add so MUCH laundry. I hate laundry.
- I miss my dogs. Terribly. And so does Mia. She even cried herself to sleep two nights last week over it.
- A 17 year old kid got up in sacrament meeting today (we were in another ward visiting) and talked about the movie "The Last Exorcist". Great, huh? SERIOUSLY. Talk about the Spirit disappearing quick...
- I'm worried about Jaxon. His birthday is in August and he just started 4th grade. I'm wishing I had started him in school when he was six, not five. It's starting to catch up to him. I'm thinking about fighting to hold him back. (Opinions, anyone?)
- I love listening to BYU TV. The devotional talks help get me through my day.
- I love my new cell phone. It's a Samsung Reality with a touch screen. It's not top of the line, but it's perfect for me.
- I'm tired. No, I'm beyond tired. I'm exhausted. I seriously wonder if I can do this. Do what? My life. I'm having a really hard time balancing my jobs as wife, mom, teacher, taxi driver, RS teacher, organist, housekeeper, etc...
- I go to bed too late. I never go to bed before midnight. I know that contributes to my exhaustion. I need to go to bed at least an hour earlier.
- My house is a STINKING MESS. Period. If you come over, I may not let you in the door.
- September is a killer month for me as far as work is concerned. I have to talk to each student (I have 75) and create an Individualized Learning Plan for each of them. I also have to administer a reading test to all my K-2 students (I have 46). Because of this, I'm taking Emme and Mia to a sitter twice a week through the month of Sept.
- I have serious guilt about the previous rant even though my good friend Heather is my babysitter and she's fabulous.
- I really need to get in to the Dr. and have my carpal tunnel checked out, but there's no time for that until October.
- I'm worried that there might be typos in this post but I'm WAY too tired to worry about it, so I'm posting it and going to bed. G'night!
- P.S. I need to register and pre-pay for my 15 year class reunion. That makes me feel old!

Random thoughts
So, I STINK at keeping my blogging committment. *sigh* My intentions really are good...but you know the road to $#@% is paved with those, right? Yeah, I know. So for now, I have random, constant thoughts running through my head. That's what you're going to get tonight. My random thoughts. Then, I'm going to sleep. So enjoy.

Suspected DUI? BWAHAHAHAHA! I cannot wait to hear the details!
You've got to do what is best for Jaxon. If he doesn't mind being held back then do it. Maybe try homeschooling him or the program you teach. It's no fun to struggle in school.
I'm tired too. I wouldn't have let you in my door either if you came over any time in the past six weeks. You are a lot busier than I am, but I've been sick. It feels awful to live in chaos, doesn't it?
Don't feel guilty about taking your kids to a sitter. It's not all day every day. You are still there for them most of the time. I guess Mia isn't in KDG yet?
Smile and take things one thing at a time. I can't wait to come see you in a couple of weeks! It'll be fun and hopefully it will take your mind off your busy world!
Oh, and if there are any errors in this post, I don't care! :)
WOW! I can relate to so many of those bullet points. You really DO need to go for your wrist! I can't believe you live with that. FOR REAL! THe holding back thing is hard for me. Does he have friends in the lower grade? That would be the hardest thing. Were you dancing, Amberly style, while driving. That would get you a DUI!! Celebrate the month is almost over. I have been plugging at ILPs for 3 hours now. I have 10 done. NO JOKE! I dont think this process was any easier than last years.
Hi Amberly! I am so glad I came across your blog through Angies. You are a crack up! I love your witty humor. I hope you don't mind that I read it. :)
I just invited you to my blog, since it's currently private.
