just checking in

being an adult is all about doing things you don't really want to do, but you HAVE to do, right? so what am i doing instead? distracting myself by writing about the laundry i need to be folding and putting away--i do apologize. i really have become the 'sehr langweilig' person our exchange student deemed me in high school. YIKES. you have full permission to stop reading now--on with the bore: i can handle most anything, but laundry kills me every time. it's right there with making phone calls. i don't think anyone fully grasps how much i despise the telephone. but hey--if laundry is all i have to worry about today, i'm in pretty good shape and grateful for it. the laundry fairy did not come and take care of all of our clothes last night. bummer.

this is insane. i know laundry isn't my favorite thing to do and i have a hard time keeping up with it, i always have. but i can't for the life of me figure out where all these clothes are coming from. there's a whole floor full, sorted and waiting to go to the washer, and the closets are still almost full. i'm thinking it's partially because we've been doing a lot of things outside and wearing more of our get grubby in the yard clothes and changing clothes a couple times a day because of that. maybe after i get it caught up this time, i can somehow manage to at least not let it get so bad! [and yes, you guessed it--i say that EVERY time i get the laundry completely finished]

i have a lot to say about my visit with my mom yesterday, but i'm not sure if i'll be able to make it back here before our trip this weekend. this whole week has gotten away from me, and i'm really behind on almost everything!
