the lull before the storm

I'm in a lull.
I don't feel like doing anything.
And I haven't done anything. Every night this week, I have sat my ass down on the couch and watched tv. Gah!
Dude.
I never watch tv.
And I have slept in to 7:30am every day this week.
Been awesome!!
Matthew and I had an intense game of Junior Scrabble the other night...I was even too lazy to read the instructions so we kind of made the game up as we went along. By the way he cheats. He turns the letters over to see which ones he is getting before he picks them. And Luke cheats at Trouble because he can't count quite yet...I am raising cheaters!!
Nothing is new.
Nothing.
The world is swirling around me but I have nothing real exciting going on. That will all come soon enough in September when school and other activities start up again.
On the agenda for the weekend?
Nothing.
It's gonna be awesome!!

OMG, I am dying about your "By the way he cheats" comment. So funny.

Sometimes life is great during the lull. Enjoy the down time.

Treasure these moments of lolly-gagging -- they'll be over soon enough!! Hahahahahaa!

You're teaching your kids how to cheat, and you say nothing exciting is going on? When do you graduate them to cards and the mechanic's grip? (note to self, check pockets when playing games with Kelly!)

Lolly gagging is good.
