one of those days

I am having one of those days where the to-do list is very long and doesn't seem to be getting any shorter. Even the little tasks for my day have yet to be crossed off. I discovered right as I was packing up a wholesale order today that I'd mistakenly printed the wrong design. Well, something like that – right color, wrong design. How do these things happen? Well, I am guessing it has something to do with being tired and just a wee bit overwhelmed with the to-do list these days.

This morning as Liam and I were headed out the door to school, Ben had to fix the Snappie again. It threw me off a bit as we were then rushing to get to school. It was made more pleasant by the ride Liam insisted he give me (just for one block, before we got in sight of school where rides are against the rules). And also by the beautiful leaves I picked up on the walk home.

Since my to-do list is still pretty much as long as it was at the start of the day, I've decided to just take a much needed break. I'm leaving to pick up Liam in ten minutes and when we get home we are going to listen to Mrs Frisby and the Rats of Nimh on CD which I picked up at the library yesterday. I remember reading this story when I was a child and I loved it. And I am going to work on my sweater and cook some variation of this for dinner.

Tomorrow is a whole new day. I have new cards to show you and some photos from the weekend when I come back next.
