The best laid plans...

So I had all these plans for what I was going to do today. My husband's grandparents have been here the last 4 days, so I've been mostly absent doing RL things. Today, I was gonna be back hard at work on all the goodies we have coming this week.

Until my mom called. I haven't really talked to her in the last 4 days (my mom calls and wants to talk for like an hour every day) since we had company here. So she talks for an hour, kids are screaming because grandma and grandpa are gone and life just isn't as fun without them. And because they're 3 and 1 and that's what they do best.

So finally mom's off the phone, kids have cookies and are at least somewhat entertained for the time being (yay for coloring books!) so I go to fix myself some breakfast and the phone rings again. It's my husband, who needs me to bring him contacts. I'd taken him to work today so I could run to the store for a few things we needed.

So he says, "What're you doing?"

"I'm fixing breakfast."

"What are you doing for lunch?"

"Umm...I don't know."

"Want Mexican?"

"Okay, you want me to come out there for lunch?" (We're like 20 minutes from anything. So this isn't just an around the corner kind of deal.

"I need you to bring me contacts."

/me sighs

"Okay."

So now my morning is shot. And probably most of my afternoon by the time we get back, and then I have to go get him again from work this afternoon. And maybe do laundry and put away the dishes at least.
