Happy Presidents Day. We celebrated here with a day off from babysitting duties of our grandchildren toddlers whose mothers are teachers. We replaced them with school aged grandsons whose mother is an office administrator. I decided to put them to work helping me rearrange and organize my Pandemic Pantry. I have heard there is a noodle and pasta shortage at area grocery stores. I have discovered the cause. It is me.
I paid my helpers by buying them lunch at our local ice cream stand which opened during a blizzard last weekend. Today we reached 62 degrees and our snow has melted into slush, mud and puddles. Temperatures start dropping tomorrow and by Thursday night we might receive enough new snow fall to close schools on Friday. I have my fingers crossed that won't happen. Again. For the third week.
I thought I would give an update on my holiday organizing project. It is still at a standstill. I have not had any days in row without children to work on it. It has also gone down the list after my toddlers started a new game last week. It is called dump out every toy box and kick all the toys under my furniture. We have discussed why this is a bad idea and how tired Mimi is of helping them pick up all the toys spread everywhere. And also how unhappy Mimi is that she cannot walk across the room without fear of tripping. The discussions did not detract from the game. I made it until Thursday when I put all but 4 toys in boxes and stacked the boxes in my spare room. I am now sorting toy boxes and making up boxes for Goodwill since no one seemed to miss the missing toys. Don't worry, I will be introducing some of them back when we decide we aren't going to dump out the boxes anymore. But we have more than enough toys for a small country.
So that's how we are keeping busy. Hope you all are having a good week!
