Just another day in Paradise

• Garage-saled in the morning--picked up a nice, new-in-the-bag, king-sized bedding set on the cheap for the guest bedroom.
• Went to some of my favorite stores, just for fun, all by myself.
• Came home to an empty and very clean house.
• Met the kids and hubby at the pool for the opening day of the swim season.
• Heard my son say, "Dad, where are the kitties? You said this was the kitty pool."
• Finished looking through my new Real Simple magazine.
• Helped put together the playscape in the backyard.
• Realized that I don't miss my bigger yard in Austin so much now that I get to mow this one.
• Battled three different kinds of ants, both inside and outside my home.
• Thoroughly enjoyed watching and listening to my kids play on their "new" playscape.
• Found my three-year-old pressed up against the back door with his pants and underwear down around his ankles after he had "watered" the flowers.
• Did not have to go the emergency room, though there were at least three or four occasions during the day when it might have been a possibility.
• Washed my new bedding set--just in case--and snagged the comforter on something in the process, leaving a small tear. At least it was cheap!
• Made a loaf of bread in the bread machine.
• Had frozen pizzas for dinner.
• Loved (almost) every minute!
