During lunch, I cleaned the kitchen and did more laundry. At nap, I cleaned the living room. After nap, we went for a brisk walk to train for the 5K we're doing May 4th. When we got home, the kids and I pretended we were Mars explorers. I also drew a zig zag racetrack for their cars. Sunshine didn't quite get it though. She cheated a lot, which made Monster extremely frustrated. I got dinner on the table as Husband was getting home. After dinner, all four of us cleaned the computer room. We put every toy away where it was supposed to go! I even filed paperwork, which I hate doing, and usually leave for Husband to do. I got the trash out, dog pooped cleaned up, downed branches from yesterday's wind collected, and all the rest of the laundry done and put away before the kids were even in bed (Husband does bedtime here). Husband and I were actually able to sit down at 7:30 and watch an episode of Numb3rs. Now, it's off to work again for Husband and I get to sit here, in my sleepy pants now instead of yoga pants and type, feeling good about all that was accomplished on my Yoga Pants Day. Going to upload some pictures and then relax with Chasing Fire. It was a great day and an excellent break from the normal, go, go, go.
Today, I had one goal. Stay in yoga pants all day. I accomplished this goal. Funny thing is, my yoga pants days are often my most productive. The day started much earlier than normal. Monster, who I usually wake up at 7:15-7:20 was up at 6:40. This, however, got my butt in gear. By 8:15, both kids were ready to walk out the door for school, even though we had 15 minutes left and Sunshine didn't get up until 7:55. By 8:50, dinner was in the crock pot and Sunshine and I had brownies baking in the oven. The whole time Sunshine was helping, she was also singing, "I bake brownies for Daddy...brownies for Daddy." After that, she and I spent almost 2 full hours in the basement doing laundry and cleaning the basement, which had been a disaster area. I am officially getting rid of all my baby stuff. No more holding on to it "just in case". Luckily, I have a friend who is having twins, so she'd getting the majority of it! Because of the purging though, my basement looked like clothes and baby stuff threw up. Bins upon bins, upon boxes, upon bags. It was worse than bad. Sunshine happily played all by herself, which is rare, so I had time to get everything done! The basement looks awesome and all the stuff that Twin Mama is getting is neatly packed in bags and boxes waiting for me to rent the U-haul to drive it up to her (just kidding...sort of). The things that she doesn't need, I've got in a large moving box for BirthCare. That's not even touching on all the clothes I just went through and sorted to give to several other friends. I also got two boxes aside for Goodwill. It feels wonderful and scary all at the same time. We finished up the basement with just enough time to pick Monster up from school.
