Again with the bullet points; a recipe for a good Saturday:
- When your oldest goes to spend the day with her grandparents, spend some time patiently teaching your youngest to play Operation.
- Eat lunch and then enjoy the ridiculously beautiful day by taking said youngest to the park for an hour and a half.
- Go straight back out with the little one and the dog, rescue some rogue balloons blowing through a parking lot, practice some agility, then go home.
- Order in pizza instead of cooking and eat while giggling a lot.
- Welcome your big girl home, dole out snacks, then announce bedtime.
- Open a bottle of Shiraz and enjoy some movie time with your husband.
- Fall into bed exhausted yet happy, realize you still need to update your blog, and do so painstakingly on your iPod Touch.
It was a REALLY good Saturday. How was yours?
Ooooh, Operation! I got that for Christmas when I was six, and remember it well! Especially the Charlie Horse which was ultra-tricky!! Thanks for the reminder- will keep it in the back of my head for the boys.
I’ll cheat cos it’s already Sunday here, and we had a fun day- swimming and a gymnastics party (=running, jumping, swinging, jumping, running). So the boys drooped into bed, I cleaned the house and then sat reading blogs and wondering why I am still up when I feel so tired!! Ok, there’s a hint….. zzzZZZ
Over an hour spent in the walk-in clinic, and a baby girl with a nasty ear infection but that aside, Saturday was good.
