When the baby is away, the mommy will...get things done

My mom came and picked up Alex this morning for a "Grandma and Me" day.  They're going to breakfast, to the mall, to the park...  He will come home a spoiled brat I'm sure.  But, that's what grandma's are for I suppose. 



Anyway, I have been left alone to do whatever I want all morning.  I had all kinds of plans.  I was going to go to the camera shop to browse and maybe pick up a new filter.  I was going to go get a pedicure.  I was going to take a nap.  I was going to go shopping...  Oh the possibilities!  But what did I end up doing you ask?  I cleaned Alex's room. I cleaned John's and my room.  I cleaned the guest room (that has basically just been a storage room the last few months). I started laundry. I picked up all of Alex's toys in the basement and vacuumed.  I did stop cleaning to read some blogs and write this post.  But I can't seem to stop myself from being productive.  It's so much easier to clean things up when there isn't a little monkey following me around making messes behind me. 



I did get out of the house to run some errands, but nothing too fun.  I bought John a couple new pairs of work pants and returned a pair that didn't fit.  The highlight of my morning was getting a lens cap leash and neoprene neck strap for my camera (the neckstrap that came with it is just too bulky), two things I've wanted to get since I got my camera.



So, I guess I'm pretty boring, but I got a lot done, so I'm feeling pretty satisfied :)
