Spring Break has come and gone all too quickly… Probably because it was only two days long! Ha! I actually wrote a nice little post here, but the computer deleted it and my Tylenol PM is kicking in. Maybe tomorrow I can recreate it. Oh well.

 

UPDATED-

I did something the past few days that I would never have done before. I had two days off from work and instead of keeping the kids home with me, I sent them to daycare. Usually the thought of doing this would have sent me into complete mommy-guilt mode, because I spend so much time away from them during the week, but I have been fighting a cold for the last two and a half weeks, have barely gotten any sleep, and I have just been run down. I was just telling Tim the other day how much I need a break. So I decided to take advantage of the time off to get some quiet time. After dropping the kids off with the sitter I came home, opened the door, walked inside and just listened. Know what I heard? Absolutely nothing…. and it was lovely! 

I spent the past few days doing chores and other things that are impossible to do when I’m home with the kids. I’m sure you’ve seen the meme- Cleaning a house with small children is like trying to brush your teeth while eating Oreos. So true. 

I also got to have lunch again with C, which was of course a huge treat for us both! Sitting at a crowded lunch table with kindergarteners if very amusing. By the way, they offer way too much information! Ha!

In the evening we met up with my mom and sister and we took a walk to the stinky bridge. I am so glad the evenings are longer now and we can start enjoying some much needed outdoor time after I get home from work! We’ve all missed it!
