Happy Friday, everyone! I hope you’re having a good Friday, and have good weekend plans ahead of you. As for me, there’s not much I have going on this weekend. Sleeping in, hopefully, and on Sunday I think I’ll make an end-of-summer breakfast treat for everybody: homemade pancakes, sausage, bacon, wannabe egg mcmuffins, etc.

Next Monday is the first day of school for my kids and my brother, and I can’t wait! Whoo!

Thursday 13: 13 Events I’m Thinking About This Week

1. Court hearing for a family member. Nothing bad, just… stressful.
2. Muscle relaxants! These bad boys do wonders for my period pain.
3. Vicodin! Also wonderful drugs, these do wonders for my unexplained abdominal pain that I’m still trying to get diagnosed (and then fixed).
4. Sleep. I’m chronically tired these days.
5. Earthquake! We had an earthquake on Tuesday afternoon. Crazy!
6. Hardcore Pawn. This show is a trip.
7. Cell phones. Why are bills so expensive?
8. True Blood. I could go for a Bill & Eric sandwich!
9. Ice cream. I want to make some.
10. Donuts. I also want to make some of these.
11. Pancakes. I could go for some right about now!
12. This weekend. No plans, yay!
13. Sunday. Why hello there, Hurricane Irene remnants.

I apologize for blogging so sporadically over the past several months. I’ve had a crazy spring and summer, due to being sucked into some family drama/issues that was not of my own making, but nevertheless I felt at least somewhat obligated to try and help improve/resolve. The result wasn’t what I expected — one family member completely out of my life, and another living with me full-time — but that’s how life goes.

How was your summer? Did you do anything fun or exciting or new? As for me, when I wasn’t dealing with family drama, I was at the pool (many times), the beach (for a combined total of nine days!), the same amusement park twice, two carnivals, and a handful of other summertime events.

Now fall is just around the corner, school starts next Monday, and I’m already thinking about Christmas!
