I have been lazy. Very very lazy all summer long. Usually my kids are dragging me out of bed while I grab my pillows and blankets screaming and crying for 5 more minutes of sleep. I leave those tear marks in the sheets with my fingernails. BUT- today I got out of bed about 20 minutes after Jake went to work (EARLY) , BEFORE the kids woke up. I had a peaceful shower, went downstairs and had a QUIET cup of coffee (well, 3/4 coffee and 1/4 coffee mate- I told you I have a sweet tooth, and I wasnt kidding!) and I did 2 loads of laundry, actaully cleaned the kitchen and did a load of dishes - all by the time the last kid was out of bed (which was 8:00). This was the complete opposite of every other day. This time Justin came walking down to the kitchen and I smiled at him and said GOOD MORNING honey!!! He looked at me, hid behind the corner of the wall with a devilish little smirk on his face, and said, "Don't smile at me mommy!" HA!!! How does it feel, huh?? For once I was more awake than the kids :) ha- ha- ha- haha!!!! Nananananana. Ok- I am being a brat- but man did that feel good! I was clean and I had coffee, not to mention that the kitchen was clean. The house smelled so good being clean ( I love cleaning) and with the coffee going too...maybe- just maybe, there is potential for me to be a morning person?? I will have to be one when school starts and I have to bring Justin to pre-school 2 days a week, and get Andy on the bus everyday anyway- so I may as well start now!!!
Then, Andy got to play with his future bride. We had beautiful Belle over today so the kids all played while we mommys talked and hung out. Good times. The thing is that I didnt take my camera out.I am bummed. It was even right on my counter. How could I have been so careless?? Hmm...maybe I got up too early :) hahaha. But, Andy will have to make sure his brother isnt gonna move in on his girl. See, Justin I think, has a little crush on Belle. He asked her to go play in the basement... It was like asking her on a first date. Maybe he will go for older women. They are wiser and more mature.
I liked this so much, I think I will try it again tomorrow.
I had my camera in my purse!!! What a dumb-a**!
ReplyDeleteIt was cute watching them all play together! It's nice to know Belle has some options...as long as she keeps it in your family. I could handle those in-laws...well, most of the time at least! Ha ha!
Oh...and when you're finished cleaning Tracy's house...come on over. I have a doctor appt. in the AM but I'll leave the door unlocked. Cleaning supplies are under the kitchen sink!
Ha- thats where I keep mine too. And yeah- big fat phooey on me. Why the hel* did I NOT remember the camera. The thing is like an appendage to me and I dont have it on a day like today? I am a loser. I must have been mentally shopping at Archivers. I do that sometimes :) And since I am going to bed soon- and its abou tmidnight, I think the kidlets will be waking me up and not with a refreshing cup of coffee either. Although, Andy has been taking a little self pride in doing laundry for me- (and throwing it on the floor so the next load can go in the dryer, haha. Atleast he is making the effort and that is so cute! Belle will appreciate the, huh?) so who knows...maybe he will suprise mommy with a nice 3/4 cup of coffee too. (Kidding- I would feel horrible if he did that. I am NOT a slave driving mama like that)
ReplyDeleteI would laugh my ass off if he started bringing you coffee in the morning!
