Successful?

October 11, 2010

Well, I think that I successfully took a weekend off. I ignored the laundry, left the dishes, and barely cooked. I hung out with my boys giving them both extra attention since Jason was away.

I took both of them with me for a short excursion to pay the rent at the bank and go to the grocery store. Neither errand was difficult thanks to Jeremy being exceptionally well-behaved.
