A man may work from sun to sun, but Elbie's work is never done
So I'm sitting on the couch thinking "damn, why am I so tired?"
And then I realize what I've done today:
- Gotten up instead of sleeping in so Mickie could get out the door (with Andy behind the wheel) on time.
- Laundry? DONE
- Kitchen is clean, save for the dozen flies that are buzzing around going "o noes where did that restaurant/potential breeding ground in the sink go?"
- Cleaned the front room a little.
- Cleaned out the cat box. Not just mucking out, either - a total mulligan on the litter.
- Made lunch for Andy - Hamburger Helper with soy protein, canned corn, garlic bread. He bitched good-naturedly about eating too much.
- Went to get Mickie, said hi to some kids from Ye Olde Day Care, considered walking to and from the school next Friday afternoon if the weather cooperates.
- Took Mom to her work to drop her keys off in her out-of-commission Blazer.
- Went grocery shopping.
I still need to make supper (sloppy joes, chips and dip, Jones soda and/or beer). And shower. Not sure which one to do first, although I think if I eat then shower I'll be brand-clean.
And I'd like to do something about my writing projects before bed, but I dunno if that will happen...
Tomorrow will be busy at work, I can feel it in my bones. A good night's sleep sounds like an amazing idea...
