I finally took a few days off and I have to admit it was nice. Even tho the alarm didn't go off at 6:00 AM each day, the body-clock woke me around 7:30 as if to say YOU'RE LATE ! Of course the kids didn't mind rolling over as long as they could curl up on the bed for another hour.
So -for the most part I didn't do anything extraordinary - it was a real "stay-cation". Tentative plans didn't pan out so I treated myself to a little shopping trip - paid a visit to DSW and topped it all off with lunch at Magnolia Grill. I managed to walk the entire store and NOT purchase one thing. Well - OK - just one, but I needed a magazine to read while I was eating lunch!
It was Grand! Taking long walks with the dogs at least 3x a day and doing those little chores you never feel like doing and push aside. One mess was a "password" list I created over the years for all the websites that I have accounts with - and inside the yellow file folder was additional pieces of paper with log in information for all sorts of sites. As you can see Carmel held all the paper down for me so the fan didn't blow them away. My fuzzy paperweight!
I got to see first hand how Gaston redecorated the living room floor. Every day when I would leave there would be a blanket on the sofa and a blanket on the love seat. When I came home they were on the floor - and sometimes in another room. Here is Gaston finishing up......
And here is what he was preparing it for......
Had to share so Melinda can see the kids. Now I'm going to go read Harry Potter for awhile and not think about work tomorrow.
