If it's not one or the other.. it's both. I'm talking about my children. I swear sometimes Boston and Marleigh are already teaming together, against me. I figured this would eventually happen but come on! They are already making me crazy and they don't even realize it! Or do they? Between the two of them I am stretched for time, energy and sanity! There aren't enough hours during the day to get everything I would like to get done.
i.e I still have boxes to unpack, decorations to hang & clothes to be separated and hung in the closets. We need a new mattress for Boston's bed, a new toddler bed at that. I still have yet to go to my mother's house and clean out the old toy box so that Boston's room doesn't look like a tornado blew it's way through it. Marleigh's clothes are half hung but I need a book shelf for all their books, and shelves in general so I can display their fan freaking tastic photos we had taken. Travis and I need to get some boxes out of our room, and I need to go shopping for our personal bathroom since I decided that the guest bathroom needed our nice decorations and shower curtain. I know I am forgetting about a million other things, but honestly everything is coming together quite nicely. All in good time my friends and we will be completely settled into our home. The moment I unpack that last box will be the day that I get to kick my feet up and relax.. NOT! With two kids and a handsome hubby I never get to fully relax! So on edge have I been lately. I am terribly anxious to get everything done and at the same time I want to see my friends and family.
Like today for instance, instead of dedicating the late afternoon to unpacking and getting things in order we got a very surprising (but welcomed!) visit from my good friend Jessica and her handsome little man Kade. Boston was pretty happy to see his lil pal and I was completely ecstatic that she dropped in. It felt so good when she told me "we were going to church but they were locking up, so we thought we'd stop by and visit." completely warming my heart that hey, we live close enough for that to happen. I loved it! Once again so pleased to be home!! So I happily pushed my 'chores' onto tomorrow, today is all we have, why waste time when amazing things are happening? As for tomorrow, I think I just might procrastinate yet another day if it's nice enough for a walk to Grandma Laura's house maybe I can get something done, like that toy box I mentioned earlier!
All I have to say is, Not having enough time to work during the day isn't always a bad thing. Especially when it's because you are filling the day with Great Fun Things!
