Day 38 - Sundays...

I got nothing.

Tonight is an inspirational-less.

I'm sitting eating leftover (delicious!) Tiramisu from the local Italian restaurant.

And watching Scandal.

And I can't think of anything to write.  Kind of lame, right?

Few highlights from today:

Amazing Sunday morning pre-church - lots of time to play (considering Little Man was up at 6:30)
First Communion at church - such cute little babes!
Great lunch with grandparents
Working in flower gardens at grandparents' house
Amazing Cinco De Mayo dinner
Electrical work halfway done by Dear Husband (and friend, i.e. licensed electrician)

It was nice being out of the house for the day.  It gave me a chance to hang out with the kids and my parents.  I didn't have to do any of the 100 things on my list (except I did make enchiladas - triple batch!).  But I also got to dig in the dirt with my kids.  I discovered that Little Miss is extremely terrified of worms ("snakes") and any bug that flies and that Little Man will protect his sister against those aggressors (by "sucking them up in a vacuum").

I discovered that I have no idea where to start in the clean up of our own flower beds.  Or under the trees.  Or the bushes.  I don't even know what any of the plants are.  Well, except the one tree I had to take a picture of to send to the extension agency because Ellie was eating the berries.  It's a Mountain Ash - non poisonous.   Good thing, because there's no way of getting that dog to stop eating.

I discovered that my husband constantly amazes me with his patience and skills.  He worked all day to figure out the new lights and he has plans for the rest of the month to finish this project.  This is between teaching full time, coordinating track, going to drill weekends, and being a dad and husband.  See - amazing.

(Sigh)

Time for me to step it up.  Painting - here I come!!!

...

Have I mentioned that I detest painting?  In every sense of the word.  But if DH can put in this much time and sweat and stress so far, the least I can do is roll up my sleeves and some walls!

Cheers,
Megs
