On My Mind Monday

Wanna Know what's been on my mind. My complete lack of desire to blog. I didn't even turn the computer on yesterday.
I wanted to blog about our anniversary on Friday, but didn't. 10 years you know.
I wanted to blog about 2 of 5 taking the ALPS test on Friday, but didn't. Maybe I don't want to jinx him, maybe I didn't want to say anything in case he doesn't get accepted. But, I decided that I know he's smart, and he knows he's smart, so who cares. That was an interesting experience. I'm glad it wasn't a competition. Some of those parents were pretty serious about having smart kids. Lots of charter school kids. lots of private school kids. Don't get me wrong, I would send my kids to a private school in a heart beat. But I couldn't afford to send all 5 of them, and how would I pick which kid/kids get to go. So we just don't. Contrary to the popular mind set, I was for vouchers. I just couldn't bring myself to even vote on them because I have a sister in law that was so appalled by the idea, and she was a special needs teacher before she decided to stay home with her kids.
I am starting to feel ready for spring. I LOVE the winter as all of you know. But there is something about January, long drawn out inverted January (If you live in SLC you know what I mean by inverted) I'm usually okay, until it gets here, and I hear it's on the way.
It is the YW turn to plan the combined YW/YM activity. We were going sledding on Wednesday. Are we going to have snow? Maybe ice. So now I need to come up with plan B. And, no ideas at all are coming to me.
I could go on and on about what's new and on my mind. Maybe some other time right?
