good.day

today was probably the best day i’ve had since march. we got up, started getting ready for the garage sale that never happened…which we weren’t even going to be selling at…. it was more for my mother-in-law and one of B’s friends to sell shit. since that didn’t happen, we had plenty of time to get ready for A’s t-ball game. we went there, watched a pretty good game with the kids all playing well. after, we took $20.00 and went around to a few garage sales. we got home around 12:30, put E down for his nap, and started working outside. we cleaned up, mowed and started watering the back, pulled some things out of the garage to clean up that room a bit, and started out front. we didn’t mow out there, i’m going to do that after i write this ( ), but B painted a coffee table with primer, and helped me paint the front side trim of the house, which is about 2 months past due (we painted this house right before the major bombs started going off). we then came inside and made the most heavenly mac n cheese (from scratch, and it’s the fucking bomb. sorry no recipe!) and i made a tri-tip while painting, which turned out awesome (search for my tri-tip recipes). I also picked up a crusty baguette from the store and some broccoli salad. i need to get a recipe for that and make it my own eventually.

anyway, i’m mowing tonight, then it’s bedtime. all told, no drama, no crying, no anger, only smiles and exhaustion from a well-spend sunday. god damn this was a great day.

C comes home from Reno tomorrow, so it’s a whole different ballgame again. the 3 terrors will ride again!
