Day 2

Well its been over 24 hours now since my hubby has headed back to the other side of the world. Last night was a long night. My youngest comes to me at bed time and says
"mommy, since daddy's goed byebye, I should sleep in yous bed". *smile*
So, once I put her in her OWN bed, I turned in for a night of tossing and turning.
Finally about midnight, and after a strategically timed sedative, I got some rest.

I rise early this morning, with a mental list of all I need to get done. I am not ashamed (well maybe a little bit) to admit, these last 2 weeks, I have done absolutely nothing. On a normal day, my floors are mopped, laundry is done and bathrooms are cleaned. I have done NOTHING since he was home. So today I get my groove back.

Floors done, laundry started, dishes washed, lunches made, kids off to school. Woohooo! I'm on a roll. Thats all done, so now what?

I think I will redecorate the Bathroom!! So I head off to the local Wal-Mart, which is of course where all the uber-classy Army wives go for bathroom decor. I'm off to a good start.
New Rug-Check
New Seat Cover-Check

Now its off to the decorations and scented candles. This is where I get distracted.
I couldn't find just the right decor for to match the vision I have for my potty, so I head to the candles. As I'm looking at all the different types, scents and arrangements, I catch a glimpse of the food scented candles. Now I understand, these candles aren't "necessarily" for the bathroom and can be placed anywhere in the home.
However, I can honestly say, I've never thought to myself.....

"do you know what would make pooping even better....pumpkin pie". So now that I will never look at pie the same way, I've settled on a grapefruit medley that will be both pleasing in aroma, and makes me feel a bit healthier for having it.

There's a good chance I should not be left unsupervised on a regular basis. I wonder what epiphany I will have on Day 3?
