Tomorrow will be the much saught after, ever rare Day Off For No Reason. No vacation to plan and pack for, no doctors appointment to shuttle to, no person that expects to see me. Just a plain old day off. Hot damn!
The DOFNR comes around so rarely that I am going to take Ella to preschool. At the regular time. And I'm not going to feel one bit guilty about it (ok, maybe just a little, itty, bitty bit).
I have really come to relish time at home alone. It happens so infrequently and in small doses. Sometimes a girl just needs to be on her own turf, on her own time, and answering only to herself.
(Am I flashing my BAD MOTHER/WIFE cards by admitting all of this?!)
I have big plans for tomorrow. They MIGHT include:
*cleaning the bathrooms
*vacuuming the house
*organizing bills/receipts
*labeling old photos
*running an errand or two
That's a big ol' might. What my plans will MOST DEFINITELY include:
*lolling about on the couch
*watching a movie (see above)
*taking a nap
*general laziness on all accounts
I think that sums it up pretty well. Enjoy your Wednesday! I know I will enjoy mine!

Enjoy it! You deserve it! No feeling guilty!
No guilt, girl, you totally deserve it. I just miss my IM buddy, but I'll let you off the hook this time. :)
I know I would have liked a "do nothing" day if such had been available in my day when young ones were around !
P.S. I still would like to have 'do what you want' days !
hope your wednesday was great - EVERYONE, even moms and wives, deserves a day to herself (at least a day...probably way more than that)!
