- wiped Danny's nose repeatedly and unstuck stuck nose boogers
- attempted to sweep the disgustingly dirty floors of our disgustingly dirty house (i swear sweeping is so soul destroying, i don't care how bad the vacuum is for wood floors....)
- been to every grocery store looking for daffodils (found them at whole foods for $2!)
- made PB&Js with the crusts meticulously cut off
- driven Sam to school and found an impossibly hard to find parking space because he's taking his little frogs to school
- avoided the toy aisle at target while buying everything around the store that i need
- looked in three stores for the crocodile creek dinosaur placemat - no luck
- negotiated that Mr Easter Bunny will definitely bring the really cool allosaurus we saw in each of those stores
- climbed up and slid down the big scary (and wet...) slide 15 times in a row
- navigated the asshole workmen at the end of our street who close it for no good reason and don't put up a sign but expect you to be psychic and just know it is closed
- checked the mailbox AGAIN for the dinosaur teeshirts
- made Elvis Presley's favorite pound cake
- and pain au chocolat
zzzzzzzz. it's time for a nap. after i find a toothpick to check whether the Elvis pound cake is ready... i used to have a cake tester about 3 houses ago
okay what is that? crescent rolls with chocolate chips...please say no because i must make them if it is and my shorts don't fit.
ReplyDeleteyes yes yes!! so easy even i can make them and feel very Martha about it. Danny is the pickiest eater EVER and asks for 'those fings wiv chocowat chips in um' constantly now
ReplyDeleteps you can buy crescent rolls and chocolate chips in bulk at costco and probably shorts with elastic waists too :)
Carol, I absolutely L.O.V.E. sweeping!
ReplyDeletePushing tiny little barely-there specks of dirt round and round until then join up with all the other little specks and you have a big pile is so cathartic. And sometimes you find interesting stuff in the dirt, like maybe a paperclip, or even five pence.
You want me to come and sweep your floors for you?
Tarnya you are a SICK woman!! First you didn't like George Michael and now you tell me you love to sweep. But yes PLEASE come and sweep for me or just sit on the couch with me while I knit your baby hats xoxo
