My time?

Here it is January 10th already and I still have one VERY IMPORTANT Christmas project to complete. It is baby Maggies Christmas gift. Thank goodness she is still an infant and doesn't know how stupid this is.

I took the day off today to have more than 5 minutes of me time in a row. I planned to sleep until I woke up and then read and watch silly daytime programming until I fell asleep again.

BUT, I have approx 10 loads of laundry (I haven't even sorted it yet), baking (I have 10 black bananas and 3 loaves of bread dough to do something with), cooking ( I have leftover turducken carcass's on the boil as I write), shopping (not even enough to give the poor dog a bone in my panty, PANTRY, I mean PANTRY, cause I am boiling the last bones again, think pantry for my supper damn it!) and now add the little dress I need to sew together to my list. I also want to spend some time visiting Maggie and her mom. They have been in town since Dec 19th and I have only seen them at Christmas family get-togethers. I am hoping to squeeze in a coffee visit this afternoon. None of this got done on the weekend because I was out of town.

AND I feel like crap today. My throat hurts, my sinus's are stuffed and my ears are plugged.

I am going to go start the laundry, make a pot of lemon tea, and sew that little blue and pink fleece dress together, make some phone calls, have some lunch, go for a quickie coffee visit, get some groceries, pick up Kaitlin from school, come home and bake cinnamon rolls, buns and banana bread, cook up some noodles for the soup stock and take a long hot bath and go to bed by 8pm and watch some silly evening programming until I fall asleep.

Or maybe I will just go have a nap with the dogs. Hhhmmmm....today is supposed to be MY TIME.

Get your ass back in bed!! This is your day. You promised me you wouldn't do this. If you must do something don't work too hard & enjoy your soup. It sounds yummy! I miss you already.

Somehow you commented before I even finished getting all my links set up. Its my day to do what I want with it, and blogging is for ME. The soup does smell really good already. I'll bring the leftovers tommorrow, if there are any.
