Oh dear, Nora has a cold. She’s in good spirits, but she’s a sneeze factory and she’ll get other kids sick if she goes to school. Better stay home. I had a terrible line up of meetings today, anyway. But too bad Ben can’t stay home, as it’s his birthday and he’d have a fun day with his girl.
Wow, a free day! What should we do? I can write a bunch of blog posts during nap time! We can make tamales instead of doing it on Saturday! After cleaning the kitchen of course. I can get some exercise! Yoga? Elliptical trainer? I can clean out some closets and gather some of Nora’s old clothes for Libby. I suppose I should do some laundry. And I should finish that elephant for the auction or I could work on Nora’s leg warmers. And I was going to make a bunch of breakfast burritos and throw them in the freezer to use up some eggs and that chorizo. And we need to frost Ben’s cake. And we can make party hats! Oh, and it’s payday, I need to pay bills. And I haven’t filled out the tax planner yet. And of course, no sick day is complete without a tea party — in our pajamas! What a great day this will be. Maybe we should just take it easy though? Yes, after the tamales…
