In the last two days I have done 8 loads of laundry (don't ask) and tidied up the house and made 3 loaves of sweet bread........
When we went to the butcher's on Saturday - there was a box of bananas at the door with a "help yourself - free" sign. They couldn't sell them cause they were too ripe. So I grabbed 6 with plans to make banana bread.
On Monday (which is laundry day) I made one loaf of banana chocolate chip bread. It was SO delicious that by Tuesday morning only 1/3 was left. I decided - seeing as I had another 4 loads of laundry to do - that I would finish up the bananas and make another loaf of banana chocolate chip bread.......... AND then cause I am silly like that - to also make a cinnamon swirl loaf......... but put both in the freezer.
(the top one is the banana chocolate chip bread - bottom one is the cinnamon swirl)
THEN cause I was on a roll - I made a HUGE beef stroganoff for dinner with leftovers for the weekend. I finally sat down at 3:34 - just in time for the lil one to arrive home from school. By supper I was so exhausted I didn't want to eat. I fell into bed and expected to sleep like a log............
WRONG!
For whatever reason I was awake more than I was asleep. Today I am supposed to run messages....... and actually go looking for a new phone and new mobile package....... the whole idea of "peopling" today makes me want to curl up in the fetal position and never leave.............
I really do have to learn to pace myself............
All that does sound tiring. But keep in mind, you're not home schooling!
ReplyDeleteLOL you are SO right PK - at least I'm not home schooling!
DeletePerhaps time to plan a chill out day, into your schedule? But then I try to do that and for one reason or another, it hardly ever works out. So who am I to hand out advice that he can't follow himself? :)
