Weird way to get some R&R....
Talk about a relaxing day around these parts! I actually took the day of from work. I honestly can not remember the last time I took Wednesday off from work. Perhaps never is the answer. Its been nice, got up and got my son out the door to go to school, cooked my wife a sunny side up egg for breakfast (aka snot) and cleaned the girls room. It's noon and I already have dinner planned and the girls are napping. Talk about productive! Of course I am sitting on my ass staring at a HUGE pile of laundry that needs attention but for once I'm sitting still, typing and watching a movie on TV. As I've said before I'm playing a little larger role in being Mr. Mom.
I feel as though I should get up and clean the garage..... or something...perhaps wash a car (oh wait, we're in a drought so nope, saved by that one!) I'm not a person who ever sits still, I always have to be doing something, cleaning something, cooking something... anything but sit still. I can never ever watch a movie during the day because I typically feel like if it's daylight there are chores to be done. But today, I think I will enjoy the R&R while the girls are napping. These days, I completely understand what my wife means by the "down time" when they are napping. It's a feeling of "WOOHOO", I can sit still for five minutes! Now I completely understand why the laundry was not always done or the bathrooms were never spotless.
In case you were wondering what's for dinner... it's Tater Tot Casserole. Having the better of both worlds in one dish. Tots and ground beef. What more could anyone ask for!
