Aww Come On

Another day off and a ton of things planned. Finish cleaning the house for the Pampered Chef party I have planned tonite. Go grocery shopping for the last minute stuff I need. Go for a long run (haven't done that in a long time). Get out Halloween stuff to start decorating the yard. Finish laundry and strip beds for the week. So much planned and the it hits at 6am- no school water main break! NO! Well trying to find the positive, boys are cleaning their rooms! Been wanting to work on that for weeks and no time for it so...incentives, incentives. They want so cold hard cash so I finish the downstairs and they stay in the upstairs. Funny how things work. Going to make this work to my advantage. Already shut off their alarms so they sleep in and the BOOM they won't know what hit them. Quality time with the boys too. Spelling and reading for a Slurpee and bike ride there for exercise. It is all going to work and if it doesn't you will hear about it. The ups and downs of life. Grateful to have them.
