Just One Of Those Days

It's 3:13 p.m. and I haven't:
  • changed out of my pajamas
  • made any beds
  • cleaned the house
  • showered
  • made my shopping list
  • opened the front door
  • done any laundry
  • figured out what to make for dinner

But I have:

  • watched Beauty and the Beast and How the Grinch Stole Christmas
  • played cars
  • built a "temple" and with the Legos
  • eaten breakfast, lunch, fruit snacks, and pretzels
  • played with Dinosaur, Elephant, and Puppy
  • watched the snow plow clean our streets
  • worked in the Cars sticker book
  • read "Beautiful Savior", "I Am a Child of God", "Curious George Goes to School", "Curious George Takes a Job", "The Crayon Box That Talked", "Skippy Jon Jones", and the January Visiting Teaching message
  • made a race track with yard sticks
  • played baseball and golf in the basement
  • helped dry off Dinosaur after his bath
  • dried up bathroom after aforementioned bath
  • put a tired boy down for an afternoon nap

It looks like a tornado tore through my house (and it looks like I was stuck in the middle of it). It's just been one of those days...a day when the things that take up my life have been put aside and I did some things that truly mattered.

You are awesome! I need to do that more. The problem is some days I don't shower or change out of pj's but I don't do anything worthwhile either.

I agree with Heidi your efforts might not have been noticable to the naked eye but it sounds like a little boy probably made some pretty good memories today.

How freaking cool are you miss? I wish someone would take care of me like that!
