Go Less Day
I’m feeling uncharming, unproductive and useless today. It is a holiday weekend, which means Robert, and I have extra shifts this weekend of staying up and trading off. After that month we had two months ago I didn’t plan to mourn my sleep/ free time so much. I really have nothing to bring this case of malaise down on me which annoys me further.
I keep reminding myself it is ok to have unproductive days.
Truthfully today was pretty productive. I got us to the allergist at 9:00am for Hannah’s all over rash. (Yes, we are still dealing with and will be seeing the dermatologist Tuesday. The allergist is sure it is not completely just a histamine reaction) It is right next to a bakery so I stopped there to pick up us all a treat. I’m a sucker for baked goods. Then I loaded everyone back into the vehicle and went to the post office. Robert had done bills and we didn’t have any two-cent stamps for the new price change.
I also picked up the new Star Wars stamps. They are pretty cool. Gabriel was a complete gentleman the entire time. He held the doors for Hannah and I to maneuver through.
Once we got home. I pretty much collapsed and didn’t want to do anything else and I think it was only 11:00 in the morning. LOL
I tried to coax the children into watching TV. Gabriel turned it off several times to tell me that I had enough today. I pulled out the mommy card and let him know that he wasn’t the boss today. I also managed to cook dinner.
Ok, I didn’t do that badly. So what if the dishes are still on the counter and I’m avoiding the washing machine like it is the plaque.
