It's Memorial Day, and many of you are having barbeques, or parties with friends. We are enjoying a rare unscheduled day. No one in our house had an appointments at all today. Well, Jake had a call back, but he's 15 and could get there on his own and didn't need me to get him there.
There weren't any baseball games, or birthday parties, or classes or work commitments. I slept in, all the way till 7 (seeing as I am usually already at work at 7, this is what constitutes sleeping late for me). Aidan, Harry and I walked to Starbucks for an iced latte and some carbonated juice drink things. Mike got the house to himself for about 12 seconds before Abby came home from her friends house.
We lounged, played Wii, read and ate. Abby took Harry to the beach for a little while and Aidan got to be an only child for a little while. All in all, we were a family of slugs.
I realize this to some seems like a waste of a day, since it's been raining so much here the past few weeks we practically need an ark, but we almost never do this. We run like maniacs 8 days a week around here.
The day is coming to a close, and for once, we are all fairly well rested. It's a nice change of pace...
