Daily life.

One of the things that I love about being home with the girls is not feeling overwelmed with house stuff, playdates, laundry, errands. Let me explain. When I was working four days a week, on my day off, the last thing I wanted to do was pack up the girls and leave to go somewhere. I wanted to stay home, clean, play and do everything I could in my one day off. Now that I am only working 10 hours per week, I don't feel like I am spreading myself thin to get everything done. You know me, I love a clean house, so that is one thing that I could never let go...even if it meant scrubbing the bathroom @ 11 on a Sunday night. I will say, since I am home more, I don't get myself ready like I used to when I was working. Most mornings, we don't get dressed until after Ruby's morning nap and I definitely don't hop in the shower first thing anymore. Last Monday, we had to drop Bobo off @ the vet, so we needed to be out of the house before 8:30. I forgot what a pain that was and how much I didn't miss it.

We decided to stop by and see Jade at one of his job sites because it was close to the pet store and I promised Reyna new fish for the pond. They are building a pretty large building for a company called Melling Tool here in Jackson. Reyna was lucky enough to score a ride on a big crane with the guy who owns the steel company. She is still talking about it. After we left Jade, we headed to Pet Supplies to pick out our four fish. Of course, we had to look at everything before we left. By the time all was said and done, I needed a coffee! It was fun taking pic's of our morning. It wasn't anything special, just a typical day for us, but at least I I have pic's to remember the simple details.
