Thursday Thoughts

• I have a few days off work and it's raining.
• That's OK, I have a ton of indoor stuff to do.
• Like laundry.
• Decluttering the closets
• and organizing the office paperwork into some semblance of order.
• How come when Mom's are "off" they still think about all the 100+ things that need to get done around the house?
• And when Dad's "off" the most he is thinking about is whether to book a morning or afternoon tee-time?
• I should have planned this time off better. But time, as usual, got away from me.
• Does Elizabeth Arden spa take walk-ins?
• Come hell or high-water I am going to get a mani/pedi on my birthday.
• although the nice Vietnamese lady who does my nails may weep when she sees the state of my feet.
• I think my heels could sand a deck it's been so long...
• and maybe I can swing some extended time in the sewing room this weekend.
• The grandparents "present" is to have Sam sleepover at their house Saturday night.
• I'm a little ashamed at myself how happy that makes me.
• Even Sam asked why I was smiling so big.
• I told her I was happy she was getting to spend extra time with her Nana and Grandpa.
• I think she's on to me though
• she asked me how much sewing I will do while she's gone?
• and will I eat all of the ice cream again while she's gone?
• For the record that only happened one time
• and it was less than 1/3 of a Haagen-Dazs Chocolate Peanut Butter container.
• Now I want ice cream.
• Birthday calories don't count right?
