When you can't post, then don't post, then need to post but....

So there comes every summer this little thing I call the Blahs. I just get in a funk. A major funk actually. I was hoping this summer by planning and having ideas of things to do I would avoid it.

I was wrong.

So it all started at the end of May when we all got sick. There was a terrible stomach bug that started with the little man and just went the circuit. It was awful and exhausting. Even the hubs called out of work.  That just doesn't happen!

Luckily, when I was down I had help and the kids went to stay with their Mimi for the first night. Keeping my life a bit more calm.





Then we had the interesting event of our cat trying to die.  He tried really, really hard. He had a fully blocked bladder. Could easily have been a death sentence. We got him to a vet, thanks to the local low-cost animal service. He stayed there five days, then came home to refuse his meds, refuse the prescription food, and basically make Yoruichi's life miserable.  Pretty sure that they haven't stopped fighting for two months.  It doesn't help that both of them needed to lose weight. Ugh.



Finally, school! Oh, it is just not working out right now. I have to get up and go.  I have all the intentions in the world but nope nope nope.

I have about 4 days to write two papers. 

Do I want to do those papers? Of course not. So I'll be relying on KOA and Pom's and just that last-minute drive to get these papers in before Thursday. Praying that happens!



So all this complaining just to say I never remember to blog! I hate it. I even think while I'm doing something: "I should be taking pictures to blog about it" but then I don't.  Like the other day! I made 6 batches of hearty banana bread. It was quite an operation. I had everything sorted and weighted out. It was perfect. then did I do it?   What do you think?


The main point of all this is that there will be a few blog posts here and there to catch up on some of the crazies of the Beam's Happenings at the Gate House, projects ongoing. Maybe even a few tidbits about school. And definitely some reviews of random things, podcasts, movies, tv shows, books and whatnots here and there. I'm looking forward to doing all this again so please don't abandon all hope of hearing from us here at Beam's Creations.
