A {little} alone time

I asked Josh if he would take the kids up to the Glen for

 the night Friday so I could have a little break.

I love my kids but every once in a while you need a little alone time!

I love just sitting in a quiet house and can actually finish a though

or a task.

After they left I got something to eat and watched a show.

Then I dug into Jordan's to clean and gut it!

I am going through the house room by room cleaning and gutting it.

The plan is to have a garage sale so or just donate it.

I forgot a before pic but just picture a floor so covered in "garbage", blocks, legos, angry birds, garbage trucks, ect. that you can't walk through it without crushing toys.

After wards it was nice and clean!

I give it two days :)

{this is from today...note the blocks getting lined up for garbage day}

After all that I had to sort out all the toys that belonged downstairs

and those that were going out to the garage for now.

I then made myself go to the grocery store.

I should have done this at the beginning of the week

but I am not a huge fan of grocery shopping.

I guess I don't mind the shopping part it the multiple trips

to bring everything into the house and then having to put it away.

Saturday morning my plan was to clean and gut our room.

I just was not in the mood for that and I had a ton of running around  to do in Bellingham.

So I grabbed some returns and headed out.

Best part of driving alone is you can turn the music up and sing loud.

Very good therapy.

I am glad I just did that because I left around 10:30 and didn't get home until 5!

I had to go all over to gather stuff for 4th of July block party 

and I am hosting Bunco here next week!

I happened to stop in Old Navy and they were having a sale on all solid flip flops for $1!

I got three pairs for Michelle and three for me!

By the time I got home Josh and the kids had returned.

We switched places and Josh headed out for a friend's bday party {poker game}.

I got everything put away.

Kids were a little tired {aka crying, fighting, whining} from camping 

so they made an early exit to bed.

I then put together goodie bags for the 4th 

and watched a movie on netflix!

Wasn't exactly the most relaxing time alone but I can get 

so much done when I am.
