This Would Be The Life

Today was a vacation day for myself.  It went like this:
  • Wake up, get the boys dressed, send them off to school with Adrian (who went to work)
  • Eat a banana and a bowl of frosted mini wheats
    • Tomorrow I will have the last serving in the box, i.e. the best serving because it's the broken bits with frosting crumbs.
  • Drink a cup of English Breakfast tea
  • Watch the Today Show
    • Supposedly there is a swimsuit for every body type
    • Chuck Barris wrote a memoir about his daughter
  • Go to the Y and do this week's tempo run on a treadmill (light thunderstorms outside)
    • Notice the place is packed - who are these people and why aren't they at work?
    • Have the guy on the treadmill next to me admit defeat
  • Return home for a long, uninterrupted shower 
    • Shave legs with shaving cream
    • Let conditioner soak in
  • Think about chores - but really just empty the dishwasher and call it good
  • Pick up the new spicy chicken sandwich reserved at Chick Fil A 
    • Free if you reserve online ahead of time - regular people can pay for them starting next week
    • It was spicier than I expected.  It will be a big hit around here.
  • Walk around Target 
    • Get a new umbrella to replace the broken one.  Apparently there's more in the world than solid black Totes.  Who knew.
  • Get a fresh haircut on 20% off Tuesday with favorite stylist
  • Stop at new awesome frozen yogurt shop - original and lemon swirl with fresh local strawberries and granola (I wish I had ordered a large)
  • Give in on the chores - clean sheets and summer comforter cover on the bed and a load of laundry in the washer
    • Scratch the comforter cover.  It smells musty because *someone* left it in the garage after they washed it.
Finally everyone returns home and life returns to normal.  And unfortunately I will have to go to work tomorrow.
