Monthly Mayhem September Edition
**Monthly Mayhem is going to be a monthly round up of life as it unravels, unfolds and hits me on the head for the past month. Oh, and there may be some good things that stuck out to me, too. Enjoy my monthly Mayhem.**

Here is my September! The good, the bad, the ugly. Cheers to September!!
Labor day: Nice long weekend off school and work. We were lazy, did some shopping. We had a family life celebration for a family member that passed away last year, family picnic. Sad news, another cousin passed away unexpectedly! Their family just can’t catch a break. My heart is sad for them.
Donate: Every spring and fall there is a huge consignment sale near us, Berks Kids Closet. This year, a consignor from the sale has rented a truck to load donations to deliver to Texas. This is quite a big, awesome thing to do. We will be donating some clothing and supplies.
Soccer: Soccer, soccer. Did I mention soccer? Both kids are playing and the season is in full swing. The kid’s schedules are clashing so me and hubs are split up, we each take a kid to practice and games.Oh, & piano for Liv.
My Mom’s Birthday: Happy birthday momma!!!
Hurricanes: What is up with these hurricanes. They are being badass this year. Harvey caused such destruction in Texas. Now Irma! My dad is in Florida, hoping he, & everyone there, stays safe. And then Jose and Maria! Geez!! Puerto Rico can’t take anymore!
Award: Proud momma moment. Olivia has gotten straight A’s every school year and last year was no different. She got an award this month for superior honor roll from last year. Thumbs up to my girl!
School: School is in session for over a month now. Kids are doing well. No complaints. They both like their teachers and are doing good in class.
Work: My new job is going well. It goes quick and before I know it, the day is over.
Cool: As in it’s finally cooling off, end of the month. Cheers to fall weather!
*These sweatshirts would be great for cooler weather!!*
Kids: Having issues with the kiddos. (Shocker. They are kids!) So, new rules. New punishments. Cut screen time. ALL screen time (TV and video games).
Friends: Had a cookout with some old friends I used to work with. It was so nice seeing everyone. We talked & laughed & had fun. Not all the peeps could make it, hopefully next time.
That is September. Nothing glamorous. Just life. How was your September? Was it crazy or lazy? Share your happenings in the comments.
Until next time….
