take time to smell the roses...or mums...

call me behind.  well, actually i take it back.  don't call me that...that's not nice.  but i am behind.  i am in the middle of making over our bedroom, working, pictures to edit, fallarizing the house (i made up that word, thank you very much) and i am sure there are ten things i am forgetting.

working.  yeah working.  and the thing about being a nanny whatever you are working on at your own house you get no reprieve when you go to work because usually the same things are going on there.  so what happens in my world is when i get home, my stuff doesn't get done.

that's why i just started that load of whites one more time this morning since they didn't make it to the dryer last night.

and did i mention my computer is broken?  because it is.  please feel sorry for me dot com.
and you thought, "i bet she made it look a mess just for the picture..."  no.  i.  didn't.  the big reveal will be awesome.

but here's the great things about life.  no matter what you have going on, no matter how far behind you are or feel...there is still time.  tomorrow is a new day, and when you have this lil one to keep you company, sometimes your list just doesn't seem that important.
especially when there is ice cream involved.

girlfriend loves her some ice cream.

take time to stop and smell the roses today.  because you know what?  all the "stuff" that you need to do will be waiting on you tomorrow.  promise.

go crazy and eat ice cream for lunch (that's what we did...)

happy day. make it a great one.

i'm off to water the flowers...i might just smell them while i'm at it.  'cept they are mums, not roses...

okay, i'll stop.  you get the point.  

so busy sans responsibility.

i had a great idea for a monday blog then i literally had no time to write it.  no time to write a blog and no time to work apparently.  seeing that that is where i am supposed to be right now.  like right this second.  (as i write)  but am home and writing because i clearly am a loser.

sunday was busy and ended about midnight, then monday started at six in the morning, then a drive to atlanta at eleven, a concert in the evening and then up and back to nashville again (then to work at one).

i was supposed to go to work at one today.  except i thought i was off for the entire day.  this has never happened to me.  i feel so irresponsible.  and just plain bad.  so i am here alone with my guilt.  when i could be playing with R2-D2 and learning the latest karate moves.

so since i am feeling guilty, i am going to work my tail off at home today.
-finish the laundry (two more loads)
-fold that laundry
-put that laundry away
-vacuum the floor where i folded that laundry
-dust the house where the laundry was folded and vacuum was run
-run (outside)
-do 'body by bethenny' because i got a tweet that it was 'on demand' now
-upload pictures for the past week, edit those pictures
-go to grocery store
-make vegetable lasagna for dinner

tomorrow i plan on working all day.  because that's what i do.  work for a livin'.

today, apparently, i just decided to take a break from responsibility.

tomorrow though.  you better watch out.


i am responsible.  i really am.
promise.
