Last week was our first week back into “routine”. We actually had a full week of school if you can believe it. I’m on my cleaning schedule yet again, and amazingly, it works. I figured out all the housecleaning jobs that need to get done during the week, then sorted it out so I have 2-3 to do each day. Helps to not have 5 loads of laundry all at once and a whole weekend day of cleaning to do. Now if only I could keep the clutter down…
We had baby S back for a few days, she’s 2 months old now and still sweet as ever. It was nice to have the baby holding time as always.
The weather has been so freakish the last few days. This morning we woke to snow…yes, snow. Gigantic flakes, but lucky for us they didn’t end up sticking at all. Then the sun came out as bright and beautiful as ever then the winds kicked up and it rained and hailed sideways. We ended up losing our power but only for a few hours. Dee and the boys took some time out to take a nap while the power was out and I watched War Games on my iPhone. It had been forever since I’d seen that movie, but forgot how low tech the computers were back then. It’s amazing the progress we’ve made in that dept. Would you like to play a game? How about Global Thermal Nuclear War?
Mary, Dee and I had a wild night last night with a few games of Pirate Farkel (thanks, Jenn!!!) and some Skittles Infused Vodka. Goofy times, but so much fun to just kick back and relax. We paid for our fun today but it was well worth it.
Looking forward to another week of swimming lessons, family dinner and hopefully just a regular, mellow week.

  1. I’d love to know your cleaning schedule…I have one of my own, but sometimes feel like switching things around. Now that all of your boys are in school, I bet you struggle with all the paper stuff too.
