Sometimes you just need to have them though. I would dearly love some rain here because we are so below our average rainfall right now it isn't funny. Tell Eammon Yom Haletetz sammeach. (Happy birthday) from another 4-4 baby (who isn't such a baby these days) now off to work for both of us. I MUST get my taxes done and out today. <small>See what Kathi has been blogging about: <a href='http://www.dragonsglass.com/2008/03/19/look-out-world/' rel="nofollow">Look out world!!</a></small> ahhh Lisa, sounds like you had a day yesterday.

Heh. I have to say, I'm not completely freaked-out by the black pants thing. I figure if I can't find them, I can always take a pair of his existing pants and stick them in a dye bath. I actually have black dye around here somewhere. They never said he needed a <i>dressy</i> shirt and pants, so if I send him in a nice white knit shirt, and a pair of dyed black jeans, he should be fine. Of course, it would be a lot easier just to buy them, so here's hoping I find some :-D Haha, I can identify about reading blog of other people who are slacking off in the same way I am. Heh.

But it's also 62 degrees. What's up with that?? I have big plans for today - making play dough, shopping for black pants, getting caught up on email, maybe even shipping a few orders... But at the moment, I'm unshowered (still) and wearing the same black sweats I've worn for the last four days. What makes this better than yesterday is that I have every intention of actually taking that much-needed shower, and putting on something nice to wear. If I can't manage to shave my legs for my anniversary, then I have to feel kind of sorry for my poor husband, LOL! I Just have to finish my cup of tea. And do a little bit of blog reading :-) Raining again today here, too. But it’s also 62 degrees. What’s up with that??

Before I had kids, I felt that to sleep past 9:00 would be to waste the morning. Now that I have kids, I feel that to sleep past 9:00 would be a treat. Heck, it's a treat to sleep past <i>8:00</i> :-D Glad you enjoyed Neil's blog. He's not as chatty as me, but he can be awfully amusing! And informative, if you like reading sci-fi/fantasy.

I am also a procratonator, but am usually not productive while I put off the inevitable. Instead, I read blogs about other moms who procrastinate so I don't feel quite so alone. While reading your To-Do list, I really didn't get stressed out until I read that your son needs a white shirt and black pants for this week. Girl, put that task at the top of your list! Do you know how hard it is to find a white shirt and back pants when you need them? Not to mention, the CORRECT SIZE? Ask me how I know! Ok, I hope I have not completely freaked you out. Just offering a little advice from someone who has been to 6 stores in one day, looking for black pants and a white shirt, when all they had were shorts and swim suits. Keep us posted on your progress! I enjoyed your entry today. I am also a procratonator, but am usually not productive while I put off the inevitable.

I could use a pop tart for breakfast today, for it's another rainy one by me, too. I completely support your decision to neglect your chores and make pendants. Sometimes you just have to, or you'd never make the time to be creative, you know? Think of it as a mental health day :-) <small>See what Robyn has been blogging about: <a href='http://www.dognamedbanjo.com/2008/03/31/craftboston-2008/' rel="nofollow">CraftBoston 2008</a></small> Ha, loved that post!

Please be brightened by the fact that you got your rump out of bed on a rainy day and did the productive, even if it was a detour. Me...Oh well...errrmmm...I think I finally fully opened my eyes after 10:30. Some rainy days are just worth trying to sleep through! (I loved reading your husbands blog...I am sending my spouse his way, because he will L O V E! it.) Ok that was great fun to read!
