Busy, busy, busy. This is why I haven’t been able to blog daily as I used to. A mother’s work is never done. There’s a child to raise, a house to keep, a garden to tend.

Here’s a short list of the things I have to do.

• Get rid of the aphids on my Acalypha plants.
• Nurse my ailing Boxwood topiary.
• Find a good preschool nearby.
• Crunch the numbers and figure out my son’s enrollment this schoolyear.
• Get a wading pool. The summer heat is killing me.
• Have a look at all those insurance quotes

This isn’t it. These are just the things that are on my “immediate” to do list. I still have a gazillion things to attend to after I’ve finished with the above.

What is keeping you busy these days?
