Oh hello there. You're still here? I've almost forgotten about you what with all the excitement going on in my life. /sarcasm. More likely, I'm completely uninspired to write because the highlight of my day is loading my furry child into the convertible and returning hangers to the dry cleaners.
Tomorrow I have plans to drop off some old paperbacks at the library for their upcoming book sale and pick up some prescriptions from Walgreens.
Yesterday I cooked a pot roast for dinner. Are you sufficiently convinced that I have aged 30 years in the last week or shall I go on?
I am reading a lot. Only I can't afford to actually BUY books. So today I went to the library by my house and you know how many of my "To Read" books they stock? ONE. There are two more at the Central library and another one at the Barlett branch which isn't too far from here so I figure I'm good for a week. Then I'll start...IDK, watching movies or something.
Big Daddy suggested that if I could get a contract gig sometime between now and the 4th of July that would greatly help to offset the beach vacation that's already booked. Right after he suggested that I could still contribute to the family by PREPARING MEAL PLANS.
Ya'll, I am really not good at this stay-at-home thing.

It's hard at first, but there are so many opportunities...gardening, a little spring cleaning, R&R, all those things you can't do while being at work (though I do see how it could crimp your shoe shopping!!). I felt a little bored at first too; now I don't think I could EVER go back to working 40+ hours a week. I agree the dinner preparation regimen is a pain in the ass, but you can cook for a week or so doing double or triple the recipe & freezing so that next week you don;t have to really cook!

Get free books then! http://www.paperbackswap.com/index.php
You can find me on goodreads too.
this is a great idea! I've said for years that bloggers should create some sort of book exchange. I'm totally signing up.
Course, I just donated all my old paperbacks to the library book sale. So I'll have to try to find some others I'm willing to part with or wait 'til I accumulate more.
Enjoy being home while you can. I am sure that when you were at work, there were days when you wished you could be a stay at home. I know I do. Think of all things you wished you had time to do while you were stuck at work. Enjoy before you know it you'll be back to work, doing the 9-5 thing.
