Red Hot Chili Peppers, Stadium Arcadium
Its Monday night, and I am watching guilty pleasure number 2 (number one being Ghosthunters). My blackberry decided to stop working today (again-we're heading into storm number 3)and I am going through withdrawal as I type and watch Hoarders on A&E. I finished reviewing the bid sheets from the silent auction from church the other night, and I am enjoying a little down time before bed.
I did manage to clean the living room and foyer tonight, as well as the little man's room (added bonus!) as well as doing 4 loads of laundry. Little Man's little friend was over tonight, and they made the rounds-front yard, family rom, bedroom, backyard, downstairs and repeat. I had a great workout this morning, and it set the tone for the whole day. I've noticed that when I work out in the morning, I tend to eat healthier. I tend to make better choices over all.
I even did a 2 page scrapbook layout at lunch.
Tomorrow I have to help with the kindergarten assessment (the life of the PTO president I guess). Little Man is supposed to come with me and help the wee ones color. Since tomorrow is Tuesday, so that means its chicken night and time to clean the kitchen! I can almost sense the anticipation from my family on that one. Big Man thinks that I am nuts, and he's more than likely right on that accord. But it works for me.
So that means it works for us as a family. I've been working really hard with the little man picking up after himself, and that seems to be a positive change in his behavior. Sure he is very resistant to this at times (what kid isn't?) but its working. Our mornings are less miserable, because we have a plan to get out of the house. Bedtime is much easier too-once again there is that framework. I just wish we had tried this sooner!!
Its getting late, and I am starting to get tired. All my boys are sleeping and I have a strange craving for cherry garcia ice cream. Which I purposely do not buy because I will eat the entire pint in one sitting. I have done that it the past, and if its in the house, I will continue to do so. So, I just fantasize about it. Some people fantasize about Brad Pitt or whoever is the latest hottie. Me, I dream about cherry garcia, dulce di leche, superfudge brownie, chubby hubby...
Women of God can never be like women of the world. The world has enough women who are tough; we need women who are tender. There are enough women who are coarse; we need women who are kind. There are enough women who are rude; we need women who are refined. We have enough women of fame and fortune; we need more women of faith. We have enough greed; we need more goodness. We have enough vanity; we need more virtue. We have enough popularity; we need more purity. Margaret D. Nadauld
