I'm back

As serial killers would say..."I'm back" (twisted sense of humor)...
I was gone for 3 weeks...three weeks that I took a break also from the internet, most of the time.
I am so relaxed, I don't even have jet lag tiredness...
I had so much fun with my family, such a great amazing experience going to a cruise for 8 days, which I never thought I'd do. There was entertainment all the time: from music, dancing and games on the deck to shows in a full blown theatre every night. Breakfast and lunches in a buffett every day and dinners in a fancy restaurant every night. Lots of family time next to the pool...
I though Kyrsten, who's a little shy, would take sometime...but I think she felt how excited my family was and how loved she was, so she was interacting with everybody all the time...Olivia amaze everybody w how smart she is too...They had such a great time...And I did too..I had a lot of help and a lot of fun. I was so rested that after the second day I couldn't nap anymore.
I loved catching up w my friends in Argentina. I don't have a lot of friends but gosh I have amazing ones. I love them soo much!!!
I was happy to be home as well. Eventhough my house was a mess, the kids can be alone for one minute while I go to the bathroom or cook...They can play with their things...They can see their daddy...
We had arranged w Michael before I left, that they would be with  him for a whole week when I got back...so I'm taking advantage of this week.
I have started to go room by room and organize and throw away, and rearrange, get rid of expired medicine, try to put the majority of toys in the girls room, give away clothes, throw dead plants (there were only two...my plants are so used to me not watering them that they survived 3 weeks)
I made a list of every room in the house and I'm crossing off as I go. I started by the rooms with the least work so I would feel accomplished and crossed of those..and then I can take my time with the ones that require more work. I have my room (just getting rid of more clothes), the girls room (getting rid of toys and clothes) and the kitchen (major overhaul before painting the cabinets)...I feel good!!!
Ok, thank you for not losing hope!!!
