We now return to our regularly scheduled lives...

We had a wonderful time over Christmas, but I must admit I was sort of glad to send hubby off to work and our son to school today. The house is much quieter (our daughter is up in her room playing, so I have this level all to myself!) and I can beging to get back into a routine. Our son was ready to get back, too; on Saturday, he came to me and very sadly announced that he missed his friends, and ended up sitting on my lap crying. I felt so bad for him, and at the same time I couldn't help but think I needed to savor the moment as he'd sought me out... Anyway, after he was deposited at school, A and I ran a couple errands, and now we're home. I'm washing ALL the bedding today, plus continuing on my my quest to purge and organize. I have the back of our station wagon loaded with garbage bags full of clothes (which I'm taking to MOPS tomorrow), and will also be stopping by Salvation Army before Weight Watchers on Wednesday. Whew! And my reward for being a good girl? Well, I get to go to a 12 hour crop on Saturday. Paper playtime = Trish bliss :)
