One of These Days...

Tell me what is wrong with this picture: Hubby wakes up at 5 a.m. to go to work on a Sunday. I wake up at 7:30 and am out the door an hour later to go scrapping (just like any day, ha). And Carter is left alone with a list of chores on what normally would be a "day of rest."

I guess nothing is wrong with this picture if you're ME!

Yeah, one of these days the three of us are all going to be home... together... with nothing we HAVE to do! That will be nice one of these days (and I'm not sure when).

Of course, in the back of my mind I'm thinking that one of these days I need to finish that 2010 scrapbook! So when my scrappin' buddy Jenny said there would be a "vacancy" at her scrap retreat today, I volunteered to fill the chair. We were there a few hours and I got 8 pages done so now I am in the final stretch. Just have all the December and Christmas stuff left. Yep, one of these days, I will be just about caught up ... with the family chronological albums anyway.

When I got home a little after 3 p.m., I found Jim and the 2 neighbor guys trying to fix our garage doors. Apparently one got jammed today. The other one hasn't been able to close with garage door opener for ages. Now, several well-deserved Budweisers later, both doors work great! Thanks, Buds and buddies!

We initially had planned to go to a Rib Fest fundraiser over in Scandinavia this afternoon to support the Iola girls softball team. (Carter loves BBQ'd ribs!) Unfortunately, with the garage door debacle, we couldn't fit that in. So we tried to compensate by taking him to Applebee's in town. Just not the same. Not the same at all.

So now he is showered and in bed reading. And the mister and I are going to relax in the hot tub. What is wrong with this picture?

Absolutely nothing if you are Mr. and Mrs. Austin!
