Mondays. Beginnings. Of things that go in cycles.
School. (Parents know what this routine is all about. No explanation needed.)
Truck repair. Drop off. Driving and traffic. It all takes time.
Home. More cleaning and tidying.
Beds changed and made.
A little dusting in the process.
Laundry. Gather. Sort. Wash. then Dry.
Sorted through the child's closet and discovered forgotten treasures. Decided to pass it forward with some of the items.
Morning break.
More laundry and cleaning. This time the play room was my focus.
Made decisions about stuffies and puzzles and a few other little items.
Fold laundry.
Drive back to pick up the repaired truck with husband.
Get back home in time to wait for the bus.
While I waited and tap danced in place to keep warm, this is what I saw.
What freedom both critters have. What responsibility they have within that freedom not to get killed in the process. It was a beautiful sunny cold-er day here in my part of heaven.
The toy room is done for today. Child okayed a few of the give aways and it was very few that were allowed to go.
Here it is 4:22 pm and the washing machine and the dryer are both still going.
Soon time for supper preps. Thank goodness for the leftovers. They always taste better the day after.
A bit of tidying up before supper then the bedtime routine begins.
My Monday was productive. Hope yours was too.
