all of the comments are helpful.. thanks very much, scamper, cschini4..... i made bubbles today, play dough, we went to the store and shopped for sidewalk crayons, new colorful sunglasses, suckers, baloons, ice cream and cones... they have been playing alot of the day with these items, plus softball... it rained last nite and the lawn is wet... we had the cones on the patio for our snack after breakfast... we are gonna make grilled cheese, and baked nachos for lunch...with velveeta cheese of course.. i agree with scamper, play with the kids and have fun, i enjoy them so much... and they are a hoot.....now, about the chores, we do laundry throughout the day and fold at nite, while reading and playing a game.. we do dishes in the dishwasher prior to bedtime.. i always plan a weekly menu, so, that is in place.. we pay bills on the puter, after breakfast, if needed, takes about 5 minutes.. we washed all bed linens on monday... we dust as needed, which is every two days, because air conditioner is off and all windows and fans are running...more dust than usual...
