I NEVER give myself permission to be lazy. I almost always am doing something with a purpose, 24-7-365. Of course most people would say that I am physically lazy -- most of what I do requires very little physical energy. But with my time I am always trying to be productive.
But last night I just couldn't make myself do anything. After meeting with our contractor for the basement bedroom (how do you like that title, Mike) i spent almost 90 minutes in the lumber/sheetrock section of Home Depot ... NOT my idea of fun. I then went to the mall and found a few places hiring and picked up applications for John there. The lead I had turned out to be a hilarious disappointment, but I won't blog it right now. Maybe later. Or maybe I'll actually have one story I can tell my blog-reading friends when I see them in person.
I didn't get back to the house until around 7:45 and I just sat here until 10 -- couldn't even make myself blog. We have no TV here, so I just played a tetris-like computer game and headed off to bed. I was tempted to feel a little guilty, but reminded myself that I probably won't have a chance to be lazy like that again for months, so I decided to let go of the guilt.
I'm excited about the SNACC picnic. Even have a family in Wisconsin considering making a weekend of it just to be with other folks who have kids with special needs. Isn't that awesome? Who else is coming? Email me?
Claudia, you must have been hiding pretty good! I looked across the street to see if there were any lights on, and your new home looked dark so I figured you had gone home after all. I was looking to take a break from packing and thought I'd see if you were there. I guess we will see you this weekend though.
