First day of the new year... Will had us out of bed at 8am. He got into our bed at about 7am. We were so tired -did not get home from a friends home until 1:30 am and stayed up when we got home for awhile. We went to see King Kong last night-ugh I did not want to see it in the first place -but being the good friend that I am to my husband I humored him. Tony did not like it either and he is a very big King Kong fan... he is forever watching the original when he sees it on tv. After the movie we went to a friends home for a couple beers. It was a nice evening except for the paying of the sitter. She is 20 y.o. and I work with her at OJ -so I told her I would pay her 6.00 an hour -plus extra for having to drive 25 miles from Rochester to our home. I paid her 70.00... probably way too much but I have to work with her and I felt guilty for staying out so late. Live and learn I guess.
So this morning I tried napping on the couch for awhile -did not work well. First my brother called than Robyn and than mom. I finally got off the couch and in the shower. After I took all our Christmas decorations down and the tree with help from the girls and Tony. I hauled it all downstairs but have yet to put it away. Than we all went into Rochester and had some McD's for lunch and went shopping for a new vaccum. Found one! Finally! Our old vaccum was a monster! I think I vaccumed for an hour once Tony got it put together! Tony says the carpet seems much cleaner! It is nice to have the house cleaned up!
For some dorky reason I was convinced that the girls went back to school tomorrow. I was aware that it was a federal holiday -but thought the school board had screwed up and had the kids coming back tomorrow! I took a look at their lunch menu and realized that they have another day at home yet -not sure if that is a good thing or not! Regardless now I can get some more wash done a be a bit more prepared for back to school on Tuesday.
Well it getting to be bath time here and than bedtime! Hooray! I can't wait to sit in front of the tv and veg out!
