I’m looking over my to-do list for today, and so far this morning I really don’t feel like to-do-ing anything… I’m on hold for the day, in hopes that the new oven will be here sometime. I really hope it gets here, my hubby has a lunch at work on Friday, and I usually take care of the desserts. I don’t want to miss out on a cookie catering opportunity.

I’ve promised my super sweet neighbors some more cookies if the oven shows up too. So keep your fingers crossed for me, and we’ll see what today brings.

This morning my nine year old declared “I hate Mondays”, oh how I love that little guy. I used to hate Mondays too, but now I kinda love them.

I like the start to a new week. I like getting up early, and getting to the store before the crowd hits. I like coming home, and enjoying a bit of quiet from the noisy weekend. I seem to get caught back up on my housework on Mondays too.

Mondays aren’t so bad… What is your favorite day of the week?

I let the boys sleep in this morning. I was supposed to wake them up extra early, but I thought let them sleep late one more day. Tomorrow is the first day of school, and I’m not quite ready. It has been a long Summer, the kids have had their good days and their bad, and so have I. I will miss my boys though, they keep the days busy, and Agnes will miss them like crazy too.

Tonight we have open house at both schools. We’ll meet the teachers, and hopefully the boys will have a few friends in their classes. We’ll take along the supplies for the teachers too. I hope I remember to ask a few questions about snacks, and any new changes at the schools.

Today we’ll hang out around the house. The boys will probably play video games all day, and they will get a bit pouty when it is time to go to open house. They are excited about school, but not quite ready just yet. Just like me…
