Things of note:
Ghostbusters isn't as funny as I thought it was.
Taking three kids to a play (The Pirate Play) actually IS a good idea. All three were completely mesmerized.... even if I planned for Bugsy to nurse and nap... she wanted to watch the action. It helps that it is a one-act play and, well... PIRATES.
26 degrees is cold.
Having a meal plan is relaxing.
Hunting season is stressful.
Going to bed before 9:30pm is the new reality.
Letting your kids create a playground in the spare bedroom is a good idea.
Playing school is a fabulous idea. (I'm Mrs. Beasley and I ring a bell when we change activities.)
A new washer and dryer really is wonderful.
Spending enough time every day to read one chapter of a nice trashy novel can double as "me" time. (Even if you nurse the babe while you do it.)
Nothing is as relaxing as having all the rooms in your house tidied (notice I said "tidy" and not "clean") at one time.
Morning routine charts are good.
Alarm clocks that accidentally go off at 4:00am on non-hunting days are bad.
Cinnamon bun creamer is good.
Straightening my cowlicks and putting on mascara are my new glamour thing. (Did you hear that sister? Mascara. Me. It is a revolution.)
Danskos are excellent... especially red mary janes purchased on the cheap.
Husbands who wash their own hunting clothes are rare and treasured.
Kids who tidy their own bedrooms are rare and treasured.
New underpants will make up for a lot of shortcomings.
Drooly, teething, grinning babies are adorable.
Halloween candy is evil.
Fundraisers are also evil. Way evil.
The smell of grapefruit makes me very happy.
The taste of grapefruit juice (especially with vodka) makes me very happy.
