And then nothing goes according to “The List" *plan*

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….
