Playing Hookey

You will never believe what I am doing.  Go ahead, guess!

You won't guess it so I'll just go ahead and tell you.

I am sitting at my kitchen table eating a meal and sharing it with no one.
That's right.  And my house is quiet.  And I have already ran 13 miles today.
And done 3 loads of laundry.  Okay that part is not fun just necessary BUT I folded each item
ONLY ONE TIME!


Yes be jealous.
I have an entire house with a child in it for 6 hours today.
Un Heard Of!!!

It's almost like a vacation.  Well, a vacation where I still have to cook my own food and do my own laundry and clean and...Okay it's not like a vacation at all
BUT
having the chance to have a moment to just myself is, for me, priceless.
Maybe taking a day off to go to the doctor is just a cover for the need to have a moment alone.  Maybe it's a bit selfish but I know my kids will come home to a much happier mom tonight.

And with my extra time wait till you see what I've cooked up for Plan B.
