I need more hours in a day. There just seems to be so much to get done, and no time to do it. In fact, I can not believe I ever got anything done when I worked full time and was a single parent. Today is laundry day - it is supposed to be a sunny, breezy day - a great day to hang the clothes out on the line. I need to spend a few days at the apartment house, but that never happened this week. Yesterday was errand day with a pleasant afternoon visiting with my Grandmother. The weekends are always booked up with the things Mike and I need to do together, plus some quality time spent with the boys. We need to lay the hardwood floor in the "in-law apartment" this weekend, Mike is worried that it will begin to warp if we don't lay it soon.

Mike just shakes his head when I begin decorating. I have the fall decorating done - mostly anyway. When I put away the Halloween specific stuff, the Thanksgiving will then appear. As a man who never worried about decorating, he just doesn't get it. This is one of my favoite times of the year. I can get out my bulky sweaters, it's the perfect time for scented candles, the leaves are beautiful. And I look good in dark brown and green - fall colors!!
