My eyes hurt

8.13.11

Mark’s sleeping in the backyard…in a tent…with 3 children…who will kick him and roll over him and wake him several times throughout the evening no doubt.

I’m inside and should be sleeping myself while the wee one is totally out and I’ve got a big ole temperpedic to myself. Instead, I’m sitting in front of my MacBook looking through thousands of pictures, looking for the perfect ones for Drew’s kindergarten book.

School is sneaking up on me here. I’ve gotta get on this. I did it for the older two, and I will not let it go for Drew. He’s getting this book if it means I’ve gotta pull some all nighters and pay 4x what I should for overnight shipping. He’s getting one. 

I’ve gone through pictures from his first year. Then, I started going backwards and worked my way back from present day. I’ve still got 3 years of pictures to go through. But, my eyes hurt now. And, all these pictures are starting to look the same…

I’m wondering how many goofy pictures I’ve taken of this kid.
Too many to get through tonight.

    Thanks for giving me a bunch of work to do over the next week and a half :b My oldest is going into Kindergarten this year and I think that’s a great idea! Even if I might enjoy it more than he does :)

Hello

I overthink everything. This blog is a prime example. Make yourself a cup of coffee and sit down for a read. Actually, make that a pot of coffee. There’s a lot of overthinking here.
