Productive Day

Last night, Wesley packed up the boys (even Flash) and headed to Knoxville to spend some time with his parents, sister, niece and nephew. Here's what I was able to do today without the boys around:

1. Sleep In

2. Enjoy a hot Starbucks

3. Run in and out of: Home Depot, Michael's, Target, Bed Bath and Beyond, Wolf Camera, Steinmart, the bank, Hallmark, UPS store, the bank (again), Publix

4. Work out at the Y

5. Watch The Proposal (again!)

6. Clean the House

7. Catch up on Laundry

8. Work on the new kitchen decorations

WOW! I didn't even realize how much I did until right now! I was so productive so why don't I feel good?

Oh, because I didn't get:

1. A day filled with Jackson's laughter

2. Toothless whole-mouth grins from Philip

3. A kiss good morning from my best friend

4. Annoyed by a barking dog whom I love even though I say otherwise

Thank you, Wesley, for giving me a day by myself so that I could finally get some things accomplished and start to feel as though I have my head above water. I really feel more organized and on top of things, BUT I really really missed my boys!

Though it is busy, crazy, and non stop around here, it's the way I like it! So glad that I have you, Philip, Jackson and Flash in my life!

But, I did enjoy that hot Starbucks this morning!
