1. The high chair cleaner is on (in other words, it's raining). Hooray! It's been a long time since we've had any significant rain. Now I don't have to lug the hoses around and water the lawn. And the high chair can have a long soak. Nice. I just want to sit and watch the rain through the window.
2. I need to pay bills. Never any fun. I'd rather ignore them for another day.
3. I'm already in vacation mode, which is ridiculous because we don't leave until this Saturday and I have a million things to get done before then. I need to start packing, cleaning, and just doing all the stuff that it takes to get a family of four ready for a week at the beach. Why does the mom always get stuck with this job is what I want to know. Probably because we expect frivolous things like shampoo and enough beach towels for everyone to be packed. But that's a topic for another blog. :)
We're going to rent a beach house in Carolina Beach with some good friends of ours. We're really excited because:
1. We haven't seen Steve and Amy since we moved from Salt Lake. (They live in Raleigh now.)
They have two little girls, Kennedy and Stevie, who are each just younger than our boys.2. We don't have to drive. We got some cheapish tickets on Priceline. Woo-hoo! (I say cheapish because airline tickets are never what I would consider cheap.)
3. It's the first non-family vacation we've been on since before Spencer was born. Sorry, family, but we all know that family visits can't really be considered vacations!
4. It's a week at the beach, for Pete's sake! It's gonna be fun no matter what.
Okay, so that's two random lists in one post. The rain has stopped and the boys are starting to act a little cabin bound already. Guess I'd better get off my duff and start getting things done.
