What a beautiful day today was! First and foremost I got to sleep in until 9am!! Why did all of my kids sleep this late? I have no idea but what a welcome gift of rest. LOL

Jeff went turkey hunting for a little while this morning and I rather thought I would have the place to myself for the morning but then he turned up at 9:30am. He had enough apparently. I guess you can only sit in the woods for so long waiting for a turkey to come along. LOL I never understand hunting myself. I think it’s just an excuse to get out of the house. Works for me. LOL

So my leisurely morning quickly picked up pace as it always does when Jeff is home. Do you ever have the feeling that your family is in a conspiracy to stop you from getting the things accomplished that you want to get done? I know they don’t really but it sure seems like when I’m sitting around doing nothing they’re fine but when I try to do something all you know what breaks loose.

I’m going to work tonight on building new routines for myself. For anyone that isn’t familiar there is a wonderful website out there for those of us that want and need more order in our lives and don’t know where to start. This system helped me out tremendously last fall but I fell off the wagon and things in my house have steadily gotten worse so that I need to get back on track again for my sanity. When my house isn’t picked up I am so cranky that I’m snapping at everyone and I have that feeling of perpetual martyrdom. You know the “Why do I have to do everything myself? Why doesn’t anyone else help me? They sure help make the mess!!” Anyway if you want to check it out go see The Flylady.

Well it’s time to go get the grill going and make supper. Burgers and dogs for us tonight.

Until next time…
