outsourcing

You probably thought the ten days without sugar killed me.  Nope.  I'm still here.  And knee deep in refined sugar.  In fact, I've been so busy pillaging my kids' Halloween candy, I couldn't be bothered to blog.  Sorry.  Making up for lost time.

Truth be told, life has been busy.  And my i phone continues to keep me from blogging.  Well, my i phone and three kids, volunteering 6 hours a week at their school, a nearly week long trip to Lexington, KY for a work conference, a lost tooth, riding a bike w/o training wheels (daughter, not me), my friend Susie's health, play dates, trick or treating, birthday parties, re-decorating our guest room, and other odds and ends.

I can't believe a week from today will be Thanksgiving.  And guess what we are doing to celebrate?  Nothing.  Absolutely nothing.  I'm not even cooking.  Does that make me the worst mother/wife/American/person in the country?  I can live with that.  We are going to find a nice buffet at some hotel in town and let someone else cook.  I'm not a super huge fan of Thanksgiving dinner and I'm an even smaller fan of being the one who cooks it.  I like to think of it as creating jobs and doing my part to improve the economy.  Now THAT is the ture American spirit, right?
