Silence.
As of 2 minutes ago, the house is empty of children. It is quiet, but for the hum of the computer, and the sound of the wind in the trees, just outside the open window.
I feel giddy, like a kid on the first day of Summer Holidays!
What shall I do? What shall I do first with my new free time?
I could read my True Dungeon forums in peace!
I could process my Gen Con photos!
I could read a book! A book!
I could Nap. Oh, sweet sweet napping.
I could buy groceries, without 3 kids in tow! It's 10% Tuesday, after all. That would be a good thing to take advantage of!
I could pay bills. Or read my weblogs. Or surf the net for costume ideas.
I could go to Fabricland!
I could hit Staples (it's close by Fabricland) and pick up those last-minute school supplies I forgot to get earlier. Like a calculator. Apparently, Grade 3 kids need calculators.
I could clean the house......
(Looks around). The house does not look like it's been properly cleaned in 2 months.
I think, first I will go grocery shopping. Then I will come home, put away groceries, and think about what needs to be cleaned. And then, having thought all those good thoughts, I will play hookey from domestic duty, and go the the Library instead.
Mmmmm, yeah. That sounds like a plan.
Photos and forums and floorscrubbing will wait 'til tomorrow.
