The day just flies by

Days off seem to always just fly by. No matter if it's the weekend or a random weekday. Today, I had to take the day off. My mom needed the rest of the week to be there for her family. My uncle was finally having a surgery to repair parts of him from his fall. He is doing better and everything went well! My mom needed today and Friday off. Michael took Friday off to get somethings ready in our house so it worked well!

Being home on a random weekday, other than Friday, was...interesting. I kept thinking it was Friday. I am keeping my fingers crossed that I actually wake up in the morning! I tried to keep in as routine as possible. We got up our normal time. Bummer. It's amazing when you can actually sleep in on your day off. Not today. Jake and I got up and had omelets for breakfast! I think he ate 4 bites of his and maybe half of his apple. We spent the morning coloring and playing with his toys. He is obsessed with this new TV show on the Disney Channel. Chuggington. He goes spastic every time there is a commercial for it or whenever it starts! He runs around in a circle screaming "CHUGGINGTON, CHUGGINGTON!" It is the only TV he really sits through. I have never really watched it because, well I work during the week! Let me tell you what. The animated characters are extremely attractive. I was just staring at them. It's amazing. Especially this one named "Eddie". I think a lot has to do with the fact his name is Edward. Ok, yes I need help. Anyways. All the "human" characters are very attractive. Computer graphics are just amazing sometimes! (Wow, I need to go back to work!) After that we colored some more and cleaned up his room. Lunch eventually rolled around. This kid will not eat. What is up with that? He had chicken nuggets and a banana. He ate two bites of his banana and 1 chicken nugget. He then informed me he was done. At this point he had eaten as much food as a normal adult would put in one mouthful. Then came the "hurt me now" TV show. Cailou. Oh my word. I do like that Cailou is a sweet little boy and it does teach wonderful things, but come on. His laugh? Wow. It makes me want to hurt myself. Big bonus though, Jake will sit on my lap for the whole show and actually cuddle! This is a rare moment for him. He barely sits still for 2 minutes. 30 minutes?! I'll take it! He then took his nap. I thought I would use this time to start taping for painting and clean the kitchen. I loaded the dishwasher and tapped half the entry way and up the stairs. Then I sat down on the couch to check something and I woke up an hour and half later. Sitting up. Guess I was tired. Zoey was sleeping on my lap and Hawkeye was next to me on the couch, his head resting on my shoulder. I then went into panic mode and started running around. I obviously needed a nap but it didn't help at all with my to-do list! Soon enough Michael came home and we started dinner together. The day just sped by. I still hope I wake up for tomorrows work day! I have so much to do!

One thing I am trying to do is really practice the guitar. It's tough. I have such short fingers. I feel like I am going to pop a finger out of place stretching for certain chords. I need some go-go-gadget fingers! It's tough. I am trying to work through it! I hope I can get the hang of it soon enough! Almost every time I practice, Kinnick has to come up and attack my hand. He is such a spazz!
