Just
when I thought I had everything figured out and planned to execute to
perfection… life happens.
I had the day off from the work place (or play time for me) and had all these
ideas of what I thought I wanted to get done and what I was going to write
about today. So it be the day goes on and the list of items/chores/whatnot just
sits there awaiting my attention. I keep ignoring it and then the topic that I was
going to write about suddenly made no sense which is quite normal or usual for
me. I looked at my list and the clock (9am)
and thought after the news. 10am came and I was enjoying the conversation with
my hubby and didn’t do the list. 11am and I finally made the muffins which was
an optional thing on the list. Noon was the shower that was to be at 6:30 and
by 1 I finally started the laundry. Looked at the topic for today and still it
made no sense to me to which I then scratched it off the list. 3pm and the kids
come home and I sit there watching them play and read together and they proceed
to go out and play in the beautiful weather we are having. The list is now
looking at me.
I know I should have not got sucked into
another LMC movie but they are like crack for bored people. They start and get
you going “what? No, girl. Don’t trust him. Seriously!” and then next thing you
know you are watching it in complete disbelief as you watch the woman’s best
friend betray her and go with her man while setting woman up to be blamed for the
murder of the mail man because he knew too much OR it’s the love story that one
is ill and needs help and the kids set the parents up after one loses his/her
spouse and find true love. Any way you look at it, you just spent 2 hours of
the day watching a cut up movie and get the urge to buy useless products due to
the 8 million commercials that were on during said movie. Congratulations, your
house now smells amazing because of all the new scents they told us we needed
to have and the fire marshal called and begged that we not burn them all at
once for fear of having to come save us.
“The list” is now starting to stare and mock me by this point for it is now after
5pm. Dinner suddenly becomes bold print. When the hell did I do that?! Oh crap!
What are we having for dinner? The “Book It” stares at me saying “I’m free!”
and I keep thinking that with all the sickness going around I need to cook at
home and not let us eat out because I know I WASH MY HANDS. Still it sings to
me and “The List” stares and mocks me. I can no longer ignore “The List” and
must actually finish it for the day. The good news is dinner will be ready in
about 45 minutes, dishes are done, and I have wrote something today before the dreaded 10pm
deadline. The bad news is… there will be a new “List” tomorrow. J May you all be blessed….
