Today was a beautiful day!!!
First, I could sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeep as long as I wanted. Ok, so I woke up at 7, dozed a bit more, and was up and moving at 8 ... but it was *my* choice! :) It was a beautiful, sunny morning, and I got the laundry from the washer on the line, another load washed and on the line, and started the third load. I mixed up a double batch of banana bread, made it all into muffins, and had banana oatmeal cookies ready to mix. That was all before the Girl and I went to 10:30 church!
Came home from church, put that third load on the line, fed the gang lunch, baked the cookies, used my dustbuster-on-a-stick to vaccuum the stairs, hallway, Boy's room, and my room ... Then went outside, cut down the lilacs that were sprouting under my clothesline (there's supposed to be a PATH for my clothesline!). The husband was nice enough to get the Alligator Loppers all cleaned and oiled for spring, so I could do that, and then he put the screen door on the back door. Good thing, since the dog kept wandering out the open doors. She just goes out and sits in her regular run area, she's a good dog.... but still shouldn't be wandering in and out at will!
Made spaghetti this afternoon, the Boy had some for supper, and they can warm it tomorrow for supper. Overall, a VERY productive day... Just had to brag!
Now to plan for my Tuesday/Wednesday... it's supposed to be nice weather again. I wonder how much I can accomplish then! I really want to get things done inside the house -- but with the nice weather, I have to get outside, too... Today was a nice balance of in and out, with hanging laundry and cutting trees. I love getting exercise AND accomplishing something!
Next, put myself to bed early enough that my 10 hour Monday doesnt wear me out!
And maybe even to think about putting Blogging back on my schedule. Maybe not daily - weekly might be more attainable! (and maybe post those recipes to my recipe blog... !!!)
