The boys are asleep.
I let the girl go to the beach with our cousin.
The livingroom is acceptably clean.
The laundry is not only mostly folded, but I’m nearly done with the closet purge. FYI – when you have a full laundry basket stacked on top of another full laundry basket, it’s time to clean out. Goodwill’s gonna LOVE me! Next up is organizing the boys clothes into outfits, and seeing if I can fill some wardrobe holes. My folks are convinced that I have no clothes for Dan. (It’s not that we don’t have appropriate clothing for him – but he STRONGLY prefers to be naked. I don’t generally argue the point with him unless we’re going out.)
It feels SOOO good to have that done, though!
This weekend we’re looking for Big Boy Beds for Joe – it’s time for him to move up to a twin size. Unfortunately, we’re also going to be looking for Door Locks of Doom, since the little rugrat likes to unlock and dash out the door before anyone can catch him and say “NO!”
We got word that our neighborhood is going to be impacted by some heavy-duty highway construction. This does not make me happy. Although I’m not crazy about our neighbors, the ‘hood is quiet, the land is paid for, and it’s COZY dammit!
Oh well. Whenever God closes a door, he opens a window.
*looks around* OK, who let Maria the Singing Governess in here??!!??
In other news – my daughter told me today that I do an incredible imitation of the Queen of Hearts.
You heard it here first, folks. I’m a fat, pompous, bad-tempered old tyrant!
OOOOOOOOOOFF WITH HER HEAD!
