All week I look forward to the weekend... to relaxing and getting things accomplished around the house. To having time to enjoy my family. To having time for me.
Every Saturday I wonder what the heck I was thinking.
Saturdays are quite possibly the busiest day of my week. A typical Saturday look like this:
- Get up.
- Put in a load of laundry.
- Go to the grocery store.
- Transfer laundry to dryer; put in new load.
- Put away groceries.
- Tidy the house. Badger the kids to at least put their dirty clothes in their hampers.
- Fold first load. Repeat earlier laundry sequence.
- Fix lunch.
- Badger girls to get their dance things together.
- Play mom taxi.
- Multiple times.
- More laundry.
- Fix dinner.
- Collapse on couch in exhaustion.
At least I have my Sundays!
How well I remember these days. Except we didn't have dance, instead it was football and basketball practices and games. Try to enjoy it- you will blink and your girls will be all grown up! Than you will wish for groceries to put away and laundry to fold!
ReplyDeleteMindi, I wrote about Saturdays today too. However, my Saturdays are a little slower than the rest of the week and I enjoy it so much. My girls are still young (3 and a half) and I know one day, when life gets crazy busy on Saturdays, I'll look forward to Sundays like you! Enjoy tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteSaturdays open up for me, Mindi, and I pile on the things I need to do, too, even without kids! I used to call it 'catch up' day, where we did all the things we didn't get to during the week. PS-I'm glad you have Sunday too!
ReplyDeleteMindi - Weekends are not necessarily relaxing - so much to do - errands, laundry, grocery shopping, etc. Hope you find some time to rest.
