- I will clean the house (but really... that's not much fun)
- I will unpack those last few boxes from the move (well... maybe)
- I will plan ahead for dinners and have easy-to-make options for the week (um, who am I kidding?)
- I will compose extra blog posts and be pre-scheduled for a couple weeks (this has never happened)
To be honest, there are few minutes in any given day where I am not working on the computer or doing something for my family: grocery shopping, cooking, playing, laundry...
When I do have those minutes? The rest of the to-do list gets set aside. Every now and then I need time to do absolutely nothing. When Amelia is at school this week and I have a break from work duties, maybe I will turn on the TV. Enjoy a bath. Sit on the deck with a bowl of ice cream.
Oh, maybe I'll go play her video games.
The to-do list will get tackled eventually. But honestly, does it really matter? Mama needs some down time too!
Good moms have dirty houses, messy floors, laundry piles, and happy kids.
