Ordinary

Wow, is it only Wednesday? Seems like it should be Saturday by now. It's been an odd week. The kids started school on Monday. So far so good, except I can tell having homework to do is hard for them to get used to. They have all seem to adjusted well. It should be interesting having a child in middle school with 3 teachers!! I hope I'm ready if the road becomes bumpy!!
Yesterday, Jack and I had our 14 year anniversary!! Wow, he put up with me for 14 years!! We did get out for about an hour and a half for a quick bite to eat together. It was hard to stay gone with bed times, baths, homework, etc, but we did get that precious hour or so together.
Yesterday was also a beautiful day so I decided to sit on my porch a few minutes before I had to pick up the kids. I felt the porch shaking. It was so weird. The wind wasn't blowing but I could feel the porch moving!! I looked over to the storm door and could see it shaking as well. I had no idea what had happened until a few minutes later and the news came on saying it was an earthquake!! Wow!! Funny thing is that Jack never felt a thing.....even though his co-workers did.
So after 2 1/2 days full of adventure, today seems kinda "ordinary". I did my normal load of laundry, cleaned the bathroom, got groceries, and mowed the back yard. I guess something still could happen....but I think I'm ready for an ordinary day!!
