The past three months of Saturdays have been spent slaving away at my Man's office doing his remodel. Painting, ripping out carpet, and laying new laminate floor have been complicated while working around patients and massages that were scheduled during the same time. We finally got tired of trying to be quiet, dragging all the kids with us, and asking family to watch the Littles for those long days while we chipped away at the work. We decided to skip the Saturday craziness and work on Monday while the kids were at school. It was awesome to get an entire room of laminate down with no kid distractions. It was just the two of us hammering, cutting, measuring, and laughing while we finished the room. We were done before 2 PM when we weren't getting home until 5 or 6 on Saturday nights. The office is going to look so good when we are done!
After a lunch break at Chipotle, a quick visit to the dog park with Ruby, and a pit stop at Sports Basement for swimming gear for the kiddos we called our working date a success. What a treat to spend the whole day with my Man. We had a lot of fun working together. We make a great team!
Thirty minutes goes by too fast when you are speeding home to get 3 kids dressed and ready for their first day of swimming practice and to the pool on time. Again, we tag-teamed the task, getting all kids there on time with their shiny new goggles and suits. ALL THREE KIDS were so nervous to go to swimming practice. Okay, so maybe Toby wasn't all that nervous, but he doesn't really show it if he is. Things roll off his back so easy that he was along for the adventure. I think he is most willing to try new things in the pool, too. After all the kids swam the width of the pool for their coach, and learned the other kids names we were on our way home.
As much as I am thankful for all we got done today, I think I would be exhausted in under a week after so much productivity every day.
