My apologies to all of you that love to read the Tales of My Shady Past.

I know, you are all sucked in and you wait patiently everyday for my new post (especially that crazy girlfriend in Minnesota that I love to pieces!).

I am apologizing because this week……this week I will not be posting any Tales of My Shady Past stories.

This week is a VERY busy week since Zman & The Drama Queen start school on Tuesday (yep– proud mommy to a 4th & 5th grader!)

Along with school starting means a LARGE amount of paperwork and homework for me. You know what I mean?

The mass quantities of paperwork the school inundates the parents with during the first week of school.  Our children’s school is notorious for sending home papers, fliers, permission slips, handbooks etc. every day during the first week.  So, if you are looking for me….I will be sitting somewhere, with pen in hand checking the boxes yes and no and signing my parent signature on a bazillionandtwelve different pieces of paperwork. (Oh how I wish everything could be done electronically!)

So. I am sure you are wondering what will I post this week instead?

My answer is simply this…..it will be about the kids.

I will write about their first day.

I will make them my Wordless Wednesday.

I will let you know how Tatertot copes with them being gone after having them to play with everyday.

I will let you know just how much I am enjoying the piece and quiet and noise of only 1 child between the housrs of 7:30 am and 3:00pm.

I’m sure it will all be great reading material.

I have a lot of things to work on this week aside from the kids kicking off another school year.

I have a few new projects  I am working on.

I have a couple of great reviews to complete.

I have some exciting news to share……NO! MOTHER, (and sister too), I AM NOT PREGNANT!

Plus, ontop of all the things I need to complete in regard to the internet and my beautiful computer (that I have completely repaired and removed all traces of the scarypaininmyassmalwarevirus that attacked my brandnew computer last Thursday—screw you and that damn Trojan horse you road in on!) there are also things such as, housework, laundry, organization, my schoolwork, cleaning of the garage, getting ready for a rummage sale in 2 weeks and I’m sure there is A LOT more on that TO-DO List of mine. (Did I mention that there is also that Blogging for Dummies class I teach to my mom and her friend Nana Tesch on Thursday’s —- feel free to stop by their blogs and give them some comment love! Naturally Healthy in Titletown & Nana Tesch )

Also, if you haven’t taken my little survey for me yet, please take a moment to do so.  It is only 5 questions and is painless. You can find the survey HERE.

Well, I am off for now but I do promise that the Tales of My Shady Past will reappear next week Tuesday (hey—don’t give me grief– Monday is a holiday!)

P.S. I also FINALLY convinced the Hardworking Hubby to join Twitter!!! He is @hardworkinhubby so be sure to show him some love as well!
