  • The best laid plans....

    j0400289Why is it that every time I plan my Saturday, it never quite works out as planned.  There is a work day at church today.  I told Bryan that my work day would consist of cleaning my house.  That is church work, after all, since I live in the church parsonage, right?  Besides, my parents will be here Tuesday, and one of my best friends in the world will be here Friday with her family.  So, there is lots to be done. 

    I had three haircuts scheduled this morning...and had them all stacked and packed to do the job quickly so I could get to my housework.  Haircut #1 arrived and finished as planned.  Haircut #2 was a bit late and arrived the same time as Haircut #3.  No big deal though - we're all friends...so we sat around and chatted (actually, I cut hair - they sat around and chatted).  By the time haircutting was done, it was 11:00 AM.  Those of you that know me well know that when 11:00 AM rolls around - life stops.  It's lunchtime for me.  You don't want to be around me too much past 11:00 without food in my system.  It's not pretty.  So, I ran to the store for some lunchmeat.  Of course, Bryan asked me to pick up some pop and ice for the workday people.  Did that, got home, ate myself some lunch. 

    By now, it's been a few hours since I've checked my e-mail.  Wouldn't want to miss something important, ya know.  So, I decided I would make some coffee to drink while I sat at the computer.  Just a little "oomph" to give me energy to do some serious housework.  We'll see....I'm just waiting for something else to happen to stall my plans.

    So, Mom....Cheryl....if nothing else, I promise you clean sheets on the bed.  But please don't write in the dust!!

    ***UPDATE:  An hour and a half later:  top level of house cleaned except for kitchen!  Woohoo!
