  • Three Day Aaaaaaaah -

    I know the point of Memorial Day was not to give me a day away from work, but that's how I used it and it has been wonderful.  I didn't DO much.  I've hung out with the boys, about the most strenuous work I've done is cook and clean the kitchen, and it's been pretty wonderful. 

    The boys have asked for SIMS 2.  And in truth I think the SIMS is a good game for them to play.  A lot of the skills we work on in therapy are the same skills that are emphasized in the SIMS.  But, I've discovered that my graphics card can't handle it.  Oh well.  Guess we'll have to stick to the plain old original game.

    There are worse things. 

    The last time they played SIMS, they created a little me, and gave me a little boyfriend, I guess there was a common law marital arrangement because they moved him in from the beginning so little SIM me didn't even get to have a wedding. .  Then they kept making me kiss the boyfriend.  If you've ever played SIMS, you know what that leads to.  Yep.  In SIMS you can get pregnant from kissing.  SO before long, I was the Momi with 12 kids.  Good thing they knew the Rosebud cheat so they could hire us a maid, and build us a huge house. 

    Anyway, that's what we didn't do today.  What we did do was a little light housecleaning, a lot o lying on the couch hanging out with each other, some reading (that was me), some game boy (that was Tucker) and some "huh?  I can't hear you I'm listening to my music" (that was Michael). 

    It's been a cool day with dark clouds overhead to make us content with being indoors, but no rain.  Yet.

    I hope you all had the kind of Memorial Day you needed whether you participated in Memorial observances, or made it a play day.

  • Ain't it great to relax and do nothing much?  I think that was the best thing I learned from homeschool (and hubby.)  I grew up in a hurried home that was also stressful... I feel sorry for them because they never, ever relax... can't be healthy.  Woo, I am SO glad kissing doesn't lead to pregnancy, aren't you?  Well, not so directly anyways, heh.

  • Cool days with the boys rock

  • Ahhhh days are SO necessary.  Glad you are enjoying yours. 

  • If you work in America you need to take full advantage of every moment you get off. I have never seen any people anywhere work more hours and spend fewer days wth their kids. So cheers to enjoying real family time.

  • they kissed your way to 12 kids???  wow

  • I missed the whole part about the TWELVE (?!?!??!??!??!??!????) kids.

  • Are your cute little boys trying to tell you something?

    12 kids? I could barely handle two...(course, I didn't use the cheat)

    SIMS 2, at least 4 Gamecube, has no children. Perhaps that momi might be happier w/ her boyfriend.

  • Isn't that how EVERY mommy gets pregnant???

  • Your day sounds relaxing! Fantastic!

  • Sounds like a good day. How are the plans to move going. Judi
