(I forgot to mention yesterday that I made it to the TGIF on Friday! The soccer practice was moved to the school, and I decided my son would be fine attending without any of his stuff (his soccer cleats or uniform) and I went to the TGIF instead of bringing him his things. Then I asked a friend’s mom to bring him home. I’m so glad it worked out so I could do that. Thank you for everyone who reminded me that asking a friend’s mom twice in a row is a reasonable request.)
On the docket for today…
Video games. My husband and son are playing now. (And I just want to clarify that I think “needing help” during video game time is ridiculous, and I’ve expressed this sentiment many times. I think if my husband wants to help our son when he plays video games that is on him and resolves me of consenting to the “husband getting up with kids instead of me” situation. I am NOT going to help any kids with video games, so if the parent getting up on weekend mornings has to do that, it will not be me. My husband was up with our son at 8am but I did not come up until after 9am. Yes please and thank you.
Reading. We got a ton of awesome books from the library today. We’ll definitely take some time to snuggle up and read them. I love the library! I’m so glad it’s open again.
Decorating the tree. I got the lights up last night, but told my son we needed to wait for his sister to come home to put up the ornaments. She got to spend an extra night at her grandparents’ house (my ILs) and should be home around lunch.
Walk to snow cone spot. An awesome snow cone spot is open again not far from our house. It’s far enough away that walking there is an “event.” And it’s only open Friday – Sunday, so there is reason to get out and do it today. My kids need to get out of the house at least once or a weekend day starts to drag…
Watch a movie. We usually end Sundays with a movie. I’m not sure what we’ll watch today. I think there is a new kids movie on Netflix…
Run (or work out). It’s a beautiful day outside (cold, but sunny). If I’m feeling okay at lunch I’ll assume I can run. I didn’t feel sick after either of my Pfizer shots, but anecdotally I knew more people who felt sick after Moderna so I am wondering if I’ll feel sick today. I should probably get the run in sooner rather than later actually… If I don’t make it out for a run I’ll work out with a video.
Laundry. I didn’t do any laundry yesterday because my husband was in a zoom meeting in the morning when I would have done it and our washing machine and dryer are CRAZY loud in our bedroom / unit. Now I’m way behind on laundry, but I don’t need to stress because I’ll be home tomorrow morning too! Woot!
What’s on your docket today?
Glad you got to TGIF.
