Wow....I really suck

I've been away for a really long time.  My Husband was holding a position for four months that sucked donkey dick.  He was here, but he wasn't.  We had maybe a good three and half hours of "family time" during the week (if we were lucky and less if we weren't- which was quite often) and had to squeeze everything else into two days.  It was draining for the whole family.  We didn't get to do hardly anything....he needed to be near.  It really sucked....I said that though.  He happily gave that slot up a few weeks ago and went back to his normal job.  My oldest had to go to the States to take a placement test and register for classes....he starts college in the Fall.....that sucks even more.  Yes, I've cried quite a bit.  Loser that I am.  We did get a quick trip in one Saturday to a Zoo....we were trying to work our way back into "Car adventures" for the wee one.  I cannot work the GPS to save my life...instead of the Nuremburg Zoo I had us going towards the Munich Zoo.  We figured it out and I thought I had fixed it (while Hubby had to take a work call) and I screwed the pooch yet again.  We ended up at the Augsburg Zoo.  It actually turned out to be a good thing.  We really didn't enjoy it when we went last year (seeing the place you lived for 2 years bull-dozed does that to a girl).  So this time we enjoyed it.  I got to see the Baboon mating season...randy little monkeys.  That was some crazy shit.  We have started to garden again....we had to wait for the Germans to put the flowers out for sale.  All our window boxes are up and planted....I took a photo (I need to download it first) or two....we've got more pots to fill.  I participated in the Sewing Swap and I need to take photos of that...I'm really behind.  I've been destashing and cleaning (family is coming soon and bringing my baby back with them).  Spring is here...happy, happy.  Hopefully, I can keep up my blog a tad better (no promises...you all know I suck). :)
