3:15pm - Return Books to library. Check to see if there are any good movies to rent for the kids
3:45pm - Head Home, Unpack book bag, prep for dinner, start to miss the kiddos, get a few pattern pieces pinned together for later that night
5:00pm - Munchkin Pick up!
THAT list is entertaining moooooostly because my day will, in all truthfulness turn out more like this than anything else...
8:00am - Munchkin Drop off
8:15am - Realize I've left my debit card at home, run home to get it, decide to finish off the last cup of coffee lingering in the pot
8:30am - just one more page until I finish this chapter...okay...maybe one more chapter... then I'm getting up
9:00am - accidentally fall asleep on the couch
11:30am - wake up disoriented, sure that it's 7am and we're all late for school, dash madly about the living room until I realize I'm the only one home.
12:00 - Might as well eat, I'm still home.
12:30 - Contemplate a run, decide to do some yoga instead
12:35 - Realizing I've been rather lax in my yoga of late, and decide Friday's a bad day to get back into practice
12:40 - Root around the video bin for my Jillian Michael 30-Day Shred video
12:50 - Curse Jillian Michaels in 3 languages. Turn off video disgustedly
1:00 - Debate whether I've worked up enough sweat to actually need to shower or not
2:00 - Dr. Seuss Day at the Daycare!
2:30 - Lament the lack of time to get to JoAnne's & back before school lets out
2:45 - Murder at least an hour at the Downtown Library riding the escalators, checking out obscure cookbooks, reading in my favorite corner
4:15 - Decide I desperately miss the Munchkins & decide to pick them up early from school so we can go home & make pizza.

oh well!
