2:00 Friday

When I woke up this morning I really did plan on getting a lot done today.

I was going to

rotate laundry loads, put one away, and start a new one from the boy's hamper

take Griff with me to get my blood drawn - checking my very low vitamin D levels and my very high cholesterol - has to be done after fasting for at least 12 hours

take Griff out for breakfast because I'd convinced myself I would be starving by then

Do a conference call for work from the car while I watched G swing/slide/run

swing through Costco

Return home to rotate laundry

Deliver Scentsy orders

Feed G & me lunch

Finish the permit schedule and quality checklist for one of my work projects

Rotate laundry

Begin placing rocks that Jon's dug/raked/sworn out of the back yard in strategic places in my flower beds

I had figured that about the time I was starting to get the rocks placed my older two boys would be home from school, and they would happily help me finish this chore.

Carson and Evan will be walking through the front door in about 13 minutes, and I've yet to rotate a single load of wash.

I've been sitting here looking up ways to do my newly chopped tresses. Wednesday afternoon I had my favorite hair dresser cut off just over 3 inches. I've never had hair long enough to cut off 3 inches and still have hair left. I knew I was tired of the hair on my neck, and it was definitely time for a change. BUT HELLO?! Chopping off my hair (it's still in a short bob) made me discover how insecure I've become. I'm pretty sure that none of the clothes in my closet go with short hair. Yesterday I had to wear a collared shirt to cover up some of my neck. I'm sure I'll get used to it, but wow.

BTW - today I found out that if left to his own devices long enough, Griff will grow weary of telling his mother he's hungry. He'll look through the fridge, smear some stuff on a tortilla, cover it with cheese, microwave it for 1:50, and roll it all up when it beeps. Makes for a crunchy tortilla, and I don't really want to know what he found to smear. I think mine had banana, apple sauce, and bacon. He added some blue cheese cause he knew it was my favorite. Honestly? It wasn't that bad.

And I still haven't showered...
