Happy Saturday!!! One of my favorite days of the week. I am just chillin’ today and going to hang out with my son this afternoon. This week was kind of crazy with my daycare kids and schedule so I am glad for a day of “rest”!!
I know I have talked about the day’s getting away from me but it seems to be happening more lately, I have so many things I need to do and …….the time is just not there. Take yesterday as an example. I woke up early put my breakfast casseroles in the oven ( I made them the night before!) and jumped in the bath after getting breakfast for my kiddo and getting her situated for a moment anyway and taking Sasha out for a leak and feeding her breakfast as well! Then by 8:30 we are out the door to a MOPS leadership meeting……which lasted until 11:30 then I had to clean up……so, by noon I was picking up our daughter and calling my hubby to let him know we were just heading home.
Home….just for a moment, to get lunch for my little darling and then at 12:45 we are off to pick up my wonderful husband and head for Fred Meyer to do our grocery shopping…..we like to do this as a family and as my hubby is the primary cook (Yes! this is just the best!) in our household he really likes and needs to be there……and besides he thinks I spend too much money when I go by myself…….hmmmmmmm. (It’s true! Proofreading husband!)
We get our shopping done…..zipping all over the store which is our custom, he sends me thither and yon to get the things he passed on our list….(yes we have a list!) It is about 2PM by the time I pull into the drive once again…..I get my sweetie out of the car, situated doing something then start unloading said groceries…..my husband loves this part…..I do it all and he doesn’t have to lug it all in the house….it makes him very happy.
We buy 2 weeks of shopping so while trying to take in bits of General Hospital in between unloading the groceries it takes me about an hour to get it all done and put away. Yes, you might say that wasn’t the most effective use of my time but it is General Hospital and one has to make exceptions once in a while.
Then 3:10 the phone rings, it is my hubby, he is just about to head home and had I looked the thing up on the computer for him…..no, I said, no time….., he then says he will do it after exercising and then we are all going to Home Depot!
At 3:20 my ex-husband calls, says I can pick my son up anytime as he had evidently quit wrestling….which bums me out immensely but what’s is a mom to do? I was going to do this after Home Depot….but deciding to skip that and let my hubby and daughter have some dad/daughter time together.
I head out the door about 3:40 stop for a coffee and then a 40 minute drive to get my son, by 5:15 we are home after stopping briefly at the store and then I head out the door again to take the dog for a walk.
Back by 6:15 no sign of my daughter or husband I decide that tonite must be a mommy night to cook dinner so I start that and get the dog fed once again.
Wondering just a little where the shopper’s were, I get dinner ready and at just about 7PM they show up, dinner finished I look back as we sit down to eat and wonder where the day went, no time to blog, twitter, check my email, facebook, do my web work nothing………..sigh!
Have a brilliant Saturday……I am going to!!!!!
