WooHoo the weather is supposed to be in the low 70's. Gonna play out side today with kids alot. No TV! It works out great the kids play and my yard is big enough that I can do 3 set of 36 walking lunges while they play. Then tonight going to run my 4 miles.

Today is going to be great I decided. First hubby let me sleep in. No getting up at 5 to make him breakfast and lunch. Then the oldest 9 yrs old got up with the 5 and 3 yr old and made them coco, took a shower, got dressed, made herself breakfast, brushed her teeth, hair. All with out waking me up and me begging her to get in the shower and do all the things to get ready for the bus at 7:30. Now I just need to get me moving. Sleeping in is nice till you get out of bed. No my whole day is off. Pretty sure I can handle it. lol

Been starting spring cleaning. Plan is to do one big thing a day. Yesterday I detailed the inside of the fridge. Today going to work on closets and kids closest. Our town has a county wide yard sale this first weekend in May and Preschool is going to have a yardsale for fundraising. So going to go through everything and see what I can donate.

So this is my day. Bullytrouble I get to go groceryshopping on Sat. and I only have to take one kid with me. yeah. Daily chores only if hubby could see what I do everyday just to keep things picked up and kids happy.

What a nice treat to be 'allowed' to sleep in. Isn't it nice when your kids are starting to get old enough to do some of that stuff on their own?! Then it gets to where they want to do EVERYTHING on their own..... Yard sales are fun, but sometimes it seems like more work to get ready for it! Have fun going through everything-- and try not to bring too much back home with you after the sales :). My husband never really understood how much I had to do as a stay at home mom, but now that we both work full time, and I am traveling a lot, he gets it a lot more. Of course, the kids are all old enough to have their own chores and take care of themselves for the most part, but still a lot going on with three of them at home. We do our grocery shopping typically on Sunday, and are able to leave ALL the kids at home because they HATE Winco :). Have a good day!

LOL Yes, if they "only knew" what all we did in a day "off"!!! Pah-tooey!! How nice to have time to sleep in... what treasure. :) I am able to get the shopping done with just one, if I go in the am when Syd is still in school... taking both of them takes up to 2 hours, and costs about $20 more! Enjoy your lovely day... I'll live vicariously through you today! :) Keep up the great work!

Yay! for sleeping in on a weekday! It sounds like you will be pretty active playing with the kids and spring cleaning. I like days like that because it also keeps my mind off food. Win, win. There are lots of the "cute" things I miss about my daughter being little but it really is a bonus that she is totally self sufficient. And she's still a momma's girl when I need her to be! Enjoy your day!
