We have two days to get the house cleaned and the car cleaned out. As I get older and tireder I have less ambition and motivation. So I know I need both days to get it done. So I'm starting and getting some odds and ends put away, when I hear this crash. Oy. Mike was trying to move some shelves in the garage. He must not have realized it had a weak spot and it fell. Mostly there was nothing breakable on it, but it made a mess. While picking the stuff back up he realized there was a new Lego set in the pile and it had the little man's name on it. Oy. He gave it to the little man. Mike finished cleaning up the mess and then left to go hang with some gal.
So I'm left with a boy who is excited to get some new Lego's and one who needs someone to sit with him while he puts it together. Now the only person left to do that is me. That ends my motivation and we make a green lantern flying machine. Guess I have to find a new birthday present and I need to let Mike know that when stuff is on a shelf or hidden somewhere there is a reason for it. Don't just give stuff to them.
Then later the little man wanted to go to the park. I tried to explain that it was hot. He didn't care. So we went to the dog park because there is shade there for me. They played for a while until there were no more kids there. And then he realized it was hot. So we went and hung out at Pat's for the rest of the afternoon.
I did not get nearly as much done as I had intended. Guess it will be what it will be.
