Friday Morning Ramblings Whenever I am at home with just the kids, I get a spaced out feeling. I know I should be doing chores, but I just wander around aimlessly or toodle around on the computer. Bad, very bad. And then, I was going to the bathroom, and I hear Andreas in the kitchen. I had put my coffee on the counter, and I was worried about it. Sure enough, when I came out, the mug was in the sink, empty and rinsed out. Fucking lovely. I was pissed. We have no more milk, so even if I took the time to make a new one, it wouldn't be as good without the milk! Trader Joe's non-homogenized whole milk. My girl, Acorn invited me out at the end of the month for a visit. Tickets are about $200. I would love to go, but that weekend is the birthday of my two favorite men, Andreas and my husband, and due to personal reasons it's not a good time for me to leave town. But damn, it's tempting. I guess I would really like it if, during my two days off of work, I could actually have some time off, guilt free, from household work and family, but guilt free time off? That's an oxymoron if I've heard one. Ooh oooh, "Long Train Runnin'" by the Doobie Bros just came on iTunes. Yes... Earlier, I saw my little boy dance for the first time. It was sooo cute. He was dancing on top of the mountain of dirty laundry, because I'm getting it ready to go down to the laundry. We were listening to the Eels's "Goddamn Right, It's a Beautiful Day." I was a little bothered about the cuss word, but I like that song. I put it on because it really is a beautiful day outside. I have the windows open, and I am neither hot nor cold. I like that. A lot. I am going to Pilates at noon, and this mat class is led by a good instructor. I'm looking forward to it. Maybe that can by my guilt free time off? Well, Lisetta just informed me that Andreas made a mess with my bowl of cereal. I made it earlier, only to realize we have no milk. I had a bit of coffee and challah bread for breakfast. Okay, I'd better go clean up this mess. |
