That’s actually not sarcasm, my day was super exciting because I didn’t spend it doing errands, chores, or cleaning. Well, that’s not entirely true. I did laundry, the dishes, and finished putting together the chairs that we recently bought for our kitchen table. I also planned to cook dinner, but David decided to go fishing this evening so instead I’m cooking tomorrow night.

The bulk of my day was spent with my good friend Sara and her adorable 13-month-old daughter Rory. We went to the skating rink (which looks exactly like you probably remember the skating rink looking when you were a kid, disco ball and everything) for a cheap “Mommy and Me” skate time. Five bucks and I got to whiz around on my rollerblades and show those preschoolers who’s boss. But mostly I got a kick out of watching Rory have a blast.

Sara and Rory pushing their strollers!

Afterwards we had a leisurely lunch at Hungry’s where I indulged in some hummus and pita bread, along with some margherita pizza. Yum. And THEN we went to the neighborhood pool so Rory could play in the water, and I actually got to swim a few laps too. Not the best workout I’ve ever had, dodging kiddos, but I’ll take it.

When I got home and discovered I wasn’t going to be cooking I decided to watch Wall-E (so cute!) and walk the dogs. And that’s about it for my super exciting day off. On my next super exciting day off I will be painting the fireplace with the help of my friend Lauren. I can’t wait! In the meantime, I have to get to bed because, yeah, I have to work in the morning.
