It ok (by me)



  I'm going to play along with airingmylaundry today as I tell you what items/events/activities I missed but didn't lose sleep over.

You can find her current post here.

It's OK that I have an overdue book in my possession. I'm still reading it and with less then 100 pages I'll turn it in when I'm done!



It's OK that I don't always read a book to the kids at night because sometimes I read like 6 during the day!

It's OK I didn't listen to the kids when they said they didn't want to walk because we made almost 10 miles and actually enjoyed ourselves and the sights around town!

It's OK that I still have some school shopping to do because otherwise I would be efficient and people would expect more from me.

It's OK that I don't follow the whole recipe because I don't have a particular ingredient on hand.  How much can the flavor really change?  I'll do it right next time!


                 (I didn't have any basil)

  That's what I'm OK with for now. What are you OK with?

    1. Yes, her posts are entertaining. If I had asked they would have said no so I just said hey let's go this way, now this way. It was fun to see a different area and different things. 10 miles of random talking too, lol.

  4. I usually always forget an ingredient when I cook. Oops!

    And I turned in a book late recently too. I wasn't done yet and only had like 50 pages yet.

  7. I often cook without all the ingredients and improvise with what I have on hand... it's kind of more fun that way sometimes!

  13. That's so great that you were able to get them to walk so far. I know it's easy to give up sometimes but it's so awesome that you did not. And your kids will thank you for it in the end.
