Yeah, yeah, I know I should be in bed. I am quite aware that I will regret my after midnight mania in the morning hours (especially since tomorrow is chock full of dental appointments, prescription filling, piano lessons...oh, and that school thing I am trying not to think about). But alas, I am wide awake. I will shortly bop myself in the head with a cast iron frying pan or attempt reading the most boring book I can find (by flashlight so as not to wake the hub). First, though, I might as well post something to this blog.
Tomorrow, after dragging my listless self from the bed, I will wander off to the basement to rewash (for the fourth consecutive day) a load of reekified laundry. I will attempt to call (for the third time) the pediatrician's office to schedule appointments for the spawn (but NOT between the hours of 11:30 and 1 when the phone lines are off for lunch - though, ironically these seem to be the only hours I am capable of calling). I will somehow try to pick up a prescription in the morning or after doing school but before leaving for the activities listed above.
I am writing all of this down on the blog because my lovely children steal post-it notes when I try to leave myself reminders that way.
I wonder, will I someday be going through a pile of discarded belongings after they have all gone off to their adult lives only to find several years' worth of post-its underneath a loose floor board?
Well, we'll probably be broke by then, so if I do, I'm sure they'll work well as wallpaper.....

That's quite a to-do list. Good luck with it all...all of it, not just the to-dos, but the wherewithal required to do them all, if that makes any sense (and I hope it does).
that was a late night, girl!
lol at the post-it notes, i can totally relate. i'm sure they are in the same place as the lost socks.
(continuing where Jouette left off...)
... and lost phone messages from when your children answer the phone.
You mean people actually LEAVE messages on the message machine?
I'm hoping it's SOON that 'this too, shall pass'.
*sending positive thoughts*
When we are all old and gray and find the stash of post-it notes, maybe we should paste them all together, quilt fashion, and publish them in a book. ;)
And Julie - yeah, it makes sense.
-t (realizing no one will likely read this response since she is so late in posting it)
