I hit it again, guys. A beautiful day with rest and productivity all rolled into one!
I spent a few hours in the morning with Cher 💜 We haven’t seen each other for most of a week, which is virtually unheard of for us! So it was VERY precious time to get to be back in each other’s space. Sipping our coffee and tea, and catching up. It was good for the heart. Hearts, I should say.
Once Cher was off for the day, I got babies eating while I got into some of the sorting from camp stuff. I forgot to reply to a comment on the subject the other day!! I’m sorry!! We do have doubles for most everything, but I wasn’t well organized this summer and I forgot to bring tubs. So while the towels would normally stay at camp, they came home. I’m scared to leave little mouse houses available in the camper 😬 I bring all the meds and liquids home. All the fridge stuff. But LOTS of duplicates stay out there. Just, nothing cozy enough for a critter to nest in… I’m not nervous, YOU’RE nervous!
Being that I have a bunch of babies, the sorting of the meds took up the rest of the morning and a portion of the afternoon. I insisted on some sit down time during naps, but our Lemon Drop flat out just sucks at sleeping :/ Like absolutely all the way just totally unequivocally sucks. So. I tried. But it wasn’t restful for anyone.
I left the house in time to pick the kids up from school, and took everyone in for a foster visit. We did another big Walmart shop and spent a few hundred dollars on pretty much just lunch stuff 😅 Goodness. Stopped for an iced coffee as well. Had a giggle at this amazing limited time offer where a small ice cream costs more than a big ice cream 🤣
Good job, McDicks 👍
Then, we picked up, went home, and tucked in. The babies are all quiet. Most of the kids are in bed. I myself am in bed, and I’m hoping to crochet an itty bitty bit before I truly have to shut the lights off. I feel so much more myself when I get a little time to crochet in the day. Its a bit of a goal of mine, actually, to keep my craft going a little each day. Maybe. I’ll try, anyway. So many ideas, and so little time.
On top of ALL these things, we’ve had plumbers over the last two days, installing proper ventilation in the basement and getting the garage fitted for a gas heater. We anticipated three days, but today – day two – they wrapped the job. Beautifully, I might add. So that wasn’t work I had to do, but it was work being done in the house. And, let’s be honest – a different amount of on-ness. You get it. The techs were amazing and so comfortable to have around, though. Like, less than zero complaints!! Leah the Plumber killed it. Truly. I have nothing bad to say about her and her company! Amazing!
It was a big day. But its almost Friday. Tomorrow will hold work, of course, but no big deadlines, meetings, appointments, etc. So at the very least, I’ll do my work in my sweats 🙂 Sounds cozy to me!
