I have mentally posted several times over the past three days but it hasn't worked out, eh?
Sorry about that.
I've been working to keep up with the daily cleaning amidst my daily grind and a lot of laundry, and I've been doing alright, but the one thing to suffer has been my blogging.
Thursday, my relaxing evening of cleaning living room baseboards while watching Grey's was derailed when Ivy-girl decided we needed 45 minutes of togetherness at 8:45 (the precise moment when I got downstairs from tucking Jack in). I took out my frustration on the walls, baseboards, and floor to the left of the fireplace.
Friday, we hunkered down for TV-on-the-computer, making up the Grey's episode, and I didn't get a damn thing done beyond the basic dishes. No good excuses. Just that Fridays are long days recently, with tutoring both before and after school, on top of the cumulative impact of life-as-it-is for the week before.
Today's been lovely, sunny and blustery and colder than it looks, in a good winter-time way. Nat and I had lunch out together, courtesy of a playdate for the kids at a friend's house. We went to the playground, and to the mall, and had a wonderful time playing Legos with Jack.
And, I cleaned baseboards and floors in the dining room and deep-cleaned the hallway next to the basement door.
Not to mention all the inane typing I'm doing now.
Much better.
Happy weekend, all! I have three days off this weekend, which is one of my very favorite things in life. Three day weekends are just the way life should be....
