Mome reads Mommy, My daughter's way to spell it when she was younger... It stuck. My son calls me Mome... just like it looks. I now sign all my notes to them "Love, Mome". It's our inside secret and makes them smile. I always want them to smile.

101 Excuses NOT to do the Laundry


I'm actually happy it's Monday. After last week, I'm glad to have a fresh start. I have a ton of laundry to get caught up on. I just couldn't get to it last week. I was gone Tuesday-Thursday. It rained all day Friday. I know, that one is lame. But you see, my washer and dryer are in the garage. The overhead fluorescent bulbs are burnt out and the only way to get light is to open the side door. With the heavy rain, there wasn't much light to speak of and the wind was blowing the rain right into the garage. That excuse is one of my best yet. I had to work all day Saturday and Sunday, at least until it was dark outside, and then it became a lighting issue again. Hubster is walking on a sprained ankle now from falling off a ladder on Thursday and I'm not changing light bulbs in the dark. Especially the 3 foot fluorescent ones. So, here I am. A beautiful, sunny Monday...doing laundry all day.

Today also happens to be the Hubster's birthday. It was tradition (in the old days) that even if he didn't get "it" any other time ( we're not talking regular "it" but a guys favorite "it"). He always got "it" on his birthday. He reminded me of such this morning and I politely responded by telling him I decided to get him a gift instead. It's a pretty cool gift too. I can't tell you now, on the (very) slight chance that he'll read this post but it's cool. Trust me. He'll be playing with it all night. Which was kinda the idea. So he won't be trying to play with me. He is injured after all. Amazing how all the aches and pains subside when "it" is a possibility.

On another note. This Friday is Girl's Night In. It's going to be amazing. We've been sent some new wines to try out and the menu is sure to create some excess belly fat , especially the desert. But it's going to be so good I don't care. I'll have a whole month before the next one. We're always looking for new drinks to try with our foods. Feel free to contact me about any drink ideas or about sending samples. Check back over the weekend (Monday at the latest. Depending on my work schedule) for all the great pics and beverage discoveries.
