Stu Day 2009!
Today is another 24th Annual StuDay*! Activities today include getting the kids ready to take Ada to school, which is always a Christmas Story Event when it comes to getting snow pants and boots on Jay. Then I made Jay and I breakfast, a shiitake mushroom omelet w/ bacon. Then I sorted through kids shoes to make sure there were matching pairs for all, did two loads of laundry, one load of dishes, picked up Ada, ran a donation to Goodwill, took cardboard boxes to recycling, sweetened my sour dough starter, cleaned out the glass jar I keep the starter in, another load of laundry. Now I am about to put together lunch for the kids and maybe make brownies. Ada wants to help me do that. I’m a little tired and don’t really feel like it. Then I need to bathe Ada so she is ready for her slumber party tonight and birthday party tomorrow. What I’m not going to do is make dinner or clean anything. Well, except the countertops and sweeping the kitchen floor. Exciting, isn’t it?
I am having sushi tonight for dinner. Then tomorrow Mac and I are spending a kid-free evening on the Plaza, including dinner at Fogo de Chao. On Sunday, we are having brunch with family and friends at Maceli’s.
The kids are arguing, and they have already been banished to the playroom downstairs. I’m not sure where else I can put them that will not annoy me, except to bed. I’d love to have some gaming time, but I don’t think that will happen until after Mac gets home. I bought a bottle of Barrel Monkeys wine from Red Heads Studios last night. After seeing that label, how could I not? I’ll probably break that open tonight as well.
Fabulous! Enjoy your dinner tonight!
