Homebodies

We have been homebodies lately.  It has been a confluence of events, the heat and my to-dos.  Staying at home has it benefits and a downside.

Benefits:
  • You can get stuff done: cleaning, laundry, yard work, etc...
  • The Triplets get to exercise their imagination: no it's not a kitchen... it's a fort!
  • We save money.
Downside:
  • The SAHD gets a bit stir-crazy:)
Time outs do increase the more we are home.  I eventually had to take their kitchens away after they kept jumping off the top of them.  Luckily for them some friends came into town later in the week.  I needed to get the guest room ready so they got their kitchens back.

 

 




The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it.
George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950)

Home is a place you grow up wanting to leave, and grow old wanting to get back to.
