    That's alright. I didn't get much done today either. I had high expectations. Didn't quite go that way.

    I hurt my back lifting the vacuum and have not done a darn thing at all today. Gabe is going to go get my prescription and am hoping this is better soon. Dr told me...stay put..the more you try to use your back, the worse it will be. Errr try having two young children and see how much couch time is possible. ugh

    My house is starting to get messy with both kids running around and I'm unable to get them outside. I saw half a cheese slice on the floor in the kitchen. I can't even bend to pick it up, so there it will stay. lol

    The gang is having leftovers for dinner and I plan to just try and sit still. If my posts later sound loopy (more than usual) , that's the muscle relaxant talking. rofl

    It is that kind of day. I'm not getting much done, either. I'm tired and feel like a headache is coming on. What's a person to do?

    I have lots of days like that, and you know what? The laundry, dishes, vacuuming........ It's all still there tomorrow! Don't sweat the small stuff, we all need a slow day once in a while.

    Sara, you mean Jimmy hasn't found that piece of cheese yet? Have Zachary show it to him, then your kitchen floor will be clean. LOL Seriously, I'm sorry you hurt your back, close your eyes and you won't even see the mess.

    Gabe got me a new heat pad and my prescription. I'm feeling groovy at the moment.

    I have days like that a lot of the time, favesis. I just double up the next day or not let it get to me.

    I did a lot yesterday, actually. A bunch of laundry, cleaned the kitchen, vacuumed downstairs, mopped entryway, cleaned bathrooms, went to the library, went to CVS.
