I know that it seems like I am wishing my life away but I'm not, promise, I'm not - I just enjoy the weekend more than week days.
I know that I only have 6 address labels left which will all get used up today so the universe will definitely know that it's time for us to move on and send a buyer to our home for the open house tomorrow.
I know that Project Brighten Someone's Day has probably brightened my days more than it's brightened anyone else !!
I know that catching up with a friend I haven't seen in forever is a great thing happening tonight.
I know that if K's plans for the next 18 months come together, I'm going to miss her heaps BUT it may also be a good excuse for us to travel to see her.
I know that I am so pleased I don't have to do the whole school uniforms, book lists, shoe shopping thing anymore and want to wish all those children out there a happy year at school.
I know that I am very different from a lot of Moms whose blogs I read - I didn't cry when K started school but that may have had something to do with the fact that I was back working full time from when she was about a month old. Now, our nanny, wasn't quite the same - she wouldn't come out of her room on K's first day of school - never mind that she had been going to kindy for 2 years !! When we finally got her to come downstairs to have her photo taken with K, she had puffy eyes and tears running down her cheeks - poor thing ! I wish we had stayed in touch with her.
I know that I am not looking forward to Mt Washmore on Sunday.
I know that if I don't tackle Mt Washmore on Sunday, I'm going to be playing detective next week trying to find some clean clothes.
I know that I could put my head down right now and nap for a couple of hours.
I know that this isn't possible given where I am right now.
I know that it's Friday which means it's time to link in with Miss Cinders for TIK - the easiest linky on the planet.
Have the best day !
What do you have planned for the weekend ?
Is the weather cr*p where you live ?
TFTD : There are far, far better things up ahead than any we leave behind.
I am 47yrs old (I am not like some other mums my age) and I have another 11yrs to deal with school x 2 . I didn't cry this year because I had the NBN man here.
ReplyDeleteI wish we had rain forecast after I do my Saturday morning paddling!
Well that is certainly a good reason not to cry on the first day of school !!!

After spending WEEKS scouring the state for all of the items on the school supplies list, I envy you. That is time I could've spent napping. Enjoy that extra time!
ReplyDeleteI certainly will enjoy the time napping / reading / swimming / lounging around !!!

I didn't cry on the two big kids first day of school either. I was busy with #3 and I had my Mum and Sista there too! Won't say it wasn't really weird though!
ReplyDeleteHoping the open house went well. Fingers crossed they had 'buyer' written all over them!!
I know your project brighten someones day DOES brighten my day!! And you have inspired me to do something similar this year... been working on it the past few weeks, hoping for go time within the month :)
Have an AMAZING week sweet!

Thank you - the buyer walked in the next day, brought his wife back the day after and put an offer in the day after that. Three days of offers and counter offers and we have finally agreed on a price - YAY !!!
DeleteLooking forward to hearing about your project soon.

ReplyDeleteThanks Sarah - it did. The next day !!!
DeleteAll is well in my world !! Have the best day you can !

Ooh I love that thought for the day! Just what I needed to hear. I hope you had a lovely weekend and had some serious buyers come by. How funny about K's Nanny! I could just picture it while reading it :) Have a great week :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Renee - a buyer came through on Saturday, brought his wife on Sunday and made an offer on Monday. Three days of negotiations and we have a signed contract on it's way to the solicitors !!

Project Brighten Someone's Day has definitely brightened my day and led me you connect with a wonderful woman who brings sunlight into the lives of others and who I hope to meet someday soon in person - YOU! :) I love the term "Mt Washmore" LOL. Your nanny sounds like she was a truly lovely person :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Lizzy - I love PBSD as well and I am so glad to have met you - can't wait to meet IRL.

I love the sound of Project Brighten Someone's Day and suspect I have been on the receiving end of it :-) ... I did something similar some years back, only I called it The Blessing Project, which I must blog about one of these days. Do you have a post here on your blog about Project Brighten Someone's Day? I'd love to read it so let me know!
ReplyDeleteYou are funny. I am just finished with school uniforms and stationery lists. BLAH !
ReplyDeleteI NEVER cried when a kid went to school... I went WHOOP WHOOP, another one down!
I'm not normal I think.
