The Storm Before the Calm

Life since at least mid-August has been a whirlwind, to say the least.  That is when kiddo #1 moved two states away to go to college.  Since then we've been adjusting to what I like to call the "new normal."  Life without an extra driver is hectic to say the least.  After years of putting a lot of time and energy into the boy's sports, in my mind, it's time to focus on the 3 girls.  Kiddo #2 is playing rugby and kiddo #4 is back in gymnastics.   Gymnastics is one day a week and close to home.  Rugby on the other hand is two days a week with Saturday tournaments all  over the great state of Colorado.  Fort Collins by 8 AM is not my cup of tea!

In addition to new adventures with the girls.  Hay Bales & Horse Tales, the Colorado Horsecare Foodbank's annual silent auction ramps up in September.  Weeks of getting and entering auction donations filled my spare time until it our amazing event on October 14.  Hay Bales this year was amazing!  

Now, life quiets down a bit.  The auction is over.  The rugby tournaments are a little closer to home.  I can finally take a deep breath and recenter myself.
