Here we are - New Years Eve... The older kids are out and Ammon is determined to stay up until the new year comes in. Claire went to bed and I am emotionally drained. Samantha is watching a show and I am typing away. I know this may sound odd but at times the monotony of life is such that it will put me to sleep. Sometimes I get busy with work or cleaning or random things to take my mind off of reality. I think that is because life is hard sometimes. Life is tough and requires active participation and sometimes I think we all just want a break. I was talking to Samantha the other day on this subject and it just has been on my mind. Anyway - changing subjects- Madilyn's Christmas gift of some wireless earphones have died. I guess that is what you get for not purchasing genuine Apple products. So - the returns have begun.
I'm enjoying my time off for the holidays and will return to work on Wednesday. It has been good to have a break. I think everyone needs a break from time to time.
That is it for today.
