Yesterday was one of those days that just seemed really good and really productive. I got Annie off to school and both the other girls were still sleeping. Normally I would have gone back to bed, but it was almost 8, so I ate breakfast, said my prayers and read an article in the Ensign (church magazine)...none of which are normal occurrences! Then the girls woke up and we got ready, which took entirely too long, but oh well. I got to the gym (rec center) at 9:50 and renewed our membership for a mere 195 for the family for the year (our tax return money finally came in). Then I had to take the girls to the kid people and refill out forms for the new year. By this time it was already 10:00 and I had to leave by 10:20 to get Alyse to dance on time. So, I almost just bagged the whole thing, but thought, no, this is my first day back in 4 months, so I might as well do something, even if it's only for a few minutes. By the time I got started running on the treadmill, I had 10 minutes left before I had to leave...so that's what I did and at least I did something :)Off to dance we went and I finished my workout there with sit ups, push ups and triceps push ups. It was a beautiful day so I headed to the park with a few good friends and enjoyed being outside and letting the kids run rampant! Then we came back home I finished folding the laundry that had been sitting on the floor for 2 days while the two little girls took a bath and then cleaned my bathroom. The girls played really well together without much fighting. Then Kurt got home a little earlier than usual, so we ate dinner and headed to the neighborhood park. On the way, we had a lesson for Family Home Evening...all in all it felt like a really good day with lots accomplished. So much, I probably will get nothing else done for the rest of the week!
Now my only question to myself is this...why don't I get up a little early every day so I can start with prayer and spiritual reading for upliftment? I have no answer for that, expect that I am not a morning person and I am tired!!!
These pictures are the ones I took for the day trying to keep up on my picture a day project...
