Have you been hanging on to your hat in wondering how the "off" day went? Well kids didn't sleep in, they have their mother alarm clock inside of them. Up at 6:15 and wondering why the clocks where unplugged? Remember when you had a snow day and you woke up to your mom saying go back to bed you have no school? That only made you more excited to get up and look at the snow or watch the news to hear it yourself. So anyways I let them get their hour of TV in and said we have stuff to do. And the groaning began. "It is a day off we need to have fun". Oh you better believe this is going to be fun.
Started out with the fact that they will get a bigger allowance and slurppee if they run with me. Well long story short the bedrooms are clean (4 garbage bags later) and vacuumed and I have a good feeling. That was hanging over my head for weeks no months. Every time I thought we could get it done something came up better than worrying about clean bedrooms.
I got in a decent run with out boys because slurppee where not that important but playing with "lost toys" where. Another good feeling. Made the boys go to the store to get last minute stuff for the party and felt with no boys. So happened that two moms where shopping too and wanted to relieve me of my motherly duties. Which in turn meant time to finish the cleaning of my house! Funny how that works. If we only continue to look on the bright side, it does show through!
Feeling a bit more completed. Jobs well done and it have my hair. Thin and grey but still have it. Looking forward to slow down a bit and let the cold weather take over. Meaning more cuddles in blankets and decaf coffee. Don't forget the baths, my half hour get away. Looking at my cup half filled and wanting to add a little Bailey's to it!
