Greetings friends. It’ s me, Crystal.
Owner of this hot mess establishment we call Kreative in Kinder. We are still
friends aren’t we? I know, I’m the MIA chickadee that’s been
swimming upstream this year. Things are getting better though. I think. Wait, I
need to go knock on wood. Ha!

Seriously, I am determined to make this
year work. This year is known as the year of changes. And changes. Oh, and
changes. Objective changes, curriculum changes, overall atmosphere
of kids kind of changes. Yep, ch ch ch changes. (You are either singing that
song OR you don’t know what the heck I am talking about and I am officially
OLD, sigh.) These changes have me stretched to the max. Lots of pulling at my
heart, shedding of tears, my nerves, my sleep schedule. I know, I am preaching
to the choir here. I hear you screaming, PREACH. Ha!

And, because my life isn’t crazy
enough, my middle child had the flu last week. Yep, he’s starting us off nice
and early. At least I was a crazy proactive mom that ran straight to urgent
care as soon as he started running a fever so he kicked it in three days. I
think Jesus has jokes. Love me some Jesus but man oh man, he thinks I have a
cape or something lately. I keep looking in my closet for it. All I can find
are jeans that don’t fit! Ha! I think my super hero name would be Super Hot
Mess, or Captain Hot Mess. Can girls be Captains? I will have to ask my
youngest. He can school me on all things super heroes. I think my super power
would be to have the ability to clone myself. It only makes sense. I can have
one chase that kid, one read to a group, one pass out tissues because the snot
problem has run amuck, one monitor the bathroom because apparently it is cool
to miss the toilet lately, and one that can play with my hair because that
relaxes me. Ha!

I have asthma. I am sure I have
complained about this before. Well, today I had a lot of trouble because of the
constant weather changing so I had to take a few breathing treatments and a
steroid. This is why I am still awake at midnight. And why I am all hyped up
like I broke into the convenience store and drank all the coffee, mountain dew,
and ate all the candy. OMG why am I still awake?! Why am I talking a million miles an hour in my head?

Oh, and guess what else? I created
something new today. Can you believe it. It’s been months since I had time to
sit down and actually make something I needed. I was looking at my calendar and
honestly, December could have me breathing into a paper bag already. I kind of
went into a panic yesterday. As in, I already bought all of my own kids
Christmas presents on Amazon yesterday because I don’t think I will have time
shop. I know, that’s super crazy but they are all teens and only wanted a few
things, usually one big thing.

Can I tell you the most ridiculous
thing? (Sorry, I’m being attacked by squirrels and can’t focus) My daughter
wants a mermaid tail. Yes, my soon to be 18 year old daughter would like her
very own mermaid tale that she can swim in that has super special fin to make
it real. Um, how can it be “real” when mermaids are not real? Secondly, do you
know that those things cost up to $400!! No thank you. She will swim in it
three times and I will have to supervise this situation to make sure she
doesn’t drown and then she will get bored or it will be too hard and she won’t
wear it anymore. People, I can’t make this stuff up! I did find one for $100 on
amazon though. She said that if I won’t buy her one then can I just give her
money (so she can buy her own). It’s a lose-lose mermaid tail situation here.

Back to my first thought. December will
be craziness with special activities, field trips, studying holidays around the
world, and topped off with the beloved holiday party. So, I made this HolidayHelper set. Want to know something else crazy?! (I’m full of all kinds of
random information tonight, or is it this morning, idk.) I was thinking as it
posted that stuff must of frozen over since I finally made something since THIS
SUMMER, and guess what happened? It started SNOWING! And in right now! In Texas. In NOVEMBER!
What on Earth?! Is that a good sign? I hope so. Pure craziness. This
also means that when I wake up in a few hours, if I can ever go to sleep, I
need to leave even earlier because the roads could potentially be wet and
people in Texas do not know how to drive in any sort of cold weather. Truth.

Do you have a week of Thanksgiving off?
I do and I am so stinking excited about it too! My kids do not because they are
in a different district and I am also excited about that because I can go
grocery shopping and prep everything before they go on break without chasing my
tail.

Okay, I am out of control with this
post. I’m pretty sure I will read this tomorrow and say, what the heck?! Ha!
Ugh, this medicine gives me a super headache. My friend was super sweet and
dropped off some essential oils to help with my asthma. I’m not sure if I am
supposed to bath in it, smell it or drink it but I think I will read the
instructions and then attempt to go to bed. I’ve got 22 littles to attend to in
the morning. They come to school wired for sound too. I wasn’t at
school on Friday because I was home with the flu kid so I am sure I have great
things to look forward to upon my return. Ha!
