Even if we haven't left the house since Friday and the kids will have had three days off of school, don't think we haven't been keeping our brains sharp with some math facts:
3953 lego pieces + 2 boys = 1 unnavigable living room
2 days of snow + 536 unplowed roads = 2 canceled dinner dates
1 bored little boy + 1 can of play-dough + one sniffy dog = 3 hot pink dog turds
1 impulsive hubbers + 1 grocery store = 2 bags of potato chips, 1 can of beef jerky, 1 carton of ice cream, 1 chocolate cake, 1 giant box of pancake mix, 3 boxes of Hamburger Helper...
4 days at home + 1 Lazy Mama = 4 afternoon naps
0 days of work + 0 good cable channels = 38 movies/shows watched on the internet
9 therapy notes to write + 3 evals to write + 1 Rebellious Mama = 2 fun novels read
23 trips down the hill + 1 sled + 2 little boys = 1 Aching Mama
1 snow-plowed-over driveway + 1 squeamish mail carrier = 1 day without receiving mail
1 Snacky Mama + 5 different kinds of junk food = untold extra pounds
27 articles of clothing x (2 little boys + 1 Mama + 1 Daddy) x 13 trips outside = a daily load to throw in the dryer
all of the above + sweet family = good times over the past week
Nice way to sum it up! Sounds a bit like our Saturday. Lovely laziness all around!
ReplyDeleteI love what God is teaching you. I can learn from that as well. Thank you for giving me a good word!!!!
ReplyDeleteWonderful memories Julie. Sounds like it's been a great couple days! Think the kids will be back at school tomorrow? Schools out here too. Love you!
ReplyDeleteThanks,y'all!
ReplyDeleteAnd Anon - I'm so glad that verse speaks to you, too!
You are lucky if you have only had one extra load in the dryer daily!!
ReplyDeleteWe can add to pots of soup and untold cups of hot chocolate, 1 pan cookie, two batches of muffins, pancakes and sausage on Saturday and sausage gravy and biscuits on Monday. Yes, we are definitely well fed!!
