Days Off Are A Blessing...and A Curse

So the boys had no school today which means that we get to sleep in, and by sleep in I mean maybe an extra hour max. Since it was a day off, there is no particular rush to eat breakfast and get out the door which pretty much means the boys are in slow motion this morning and don't want to do their chores. In addition, the boys are under the misapprehension that I sit around all day waiting for them to get home. Now that they're home, they want me to do crafts with them and otherwise entertain them. I printed out this Santa Claus Template in the hopes that it will keep them busy enough to post this blog and yet here it is two hours later and I'm still not done. I like not having to rush off at a particular time to pick them up and I like the change in routine, somewhat but it really plays havoc with anything I need to accomplish that day.

It totally throws off my day when the kids are home. I can't get anything done!

Same here! And my boys don't sleep any extra time...at all!

I can definitely relate to that! I love the relaxing that happens when my oldest doesnt have school, but it really throws me out of whack to get anything done!

Thanks for this day. I can now refer what they want me to buy for xmas. I've been using the service at www.amzpricesniper.com. It watched the Amazon inventory and the moment Amazon received fresh inventory at the regular retail price this obnoxious alarm went off.
