May Greetings

May is always busy busy busy so I was glad to start the month off on May 1st (May Day) with a quick jaunt to Bridal Veil Falls before tackling my To Do list.

If I'm being honest, I did have visit Bridal Veil Falls on my To Do list for that day. Check. 

Last Week of School- Monday

We reached the last week of school for the boys. Busy week. It always is. Here's how it started out.

At Least I...

You know those days where you feel guilty about not getting everything on your To Do list checked off?
Well today, instead of focusing on all the things I didn't get done, every time I did get something done, I said, "If I don't get anything else done today, at least I cleaned the toilet," then, "If I don't get anything else done today, at least I cleaned the toilet and washed the crockpot," etc. etc. until my list of things I did get done was longer than my original To Do list, even if I didn't get to everything on the To Do list. So look at what I was saying later in the day:

If I don't get anything else done today, at least I cleaned the toilet, washed the crockpot, washed the roaster, set up my visiting teaching, washed the kids' bedding, took the boys to the park,

and fixed dinner with both a fruit and vegetable on the side,

except that Jr. Jr. didn't eat what we ate. He had squash.
