things i've been able to accomplish while avoiding facebook for the week.

1. Upcyle my shirt (see previous post).
2. Go to the Walk-In Clinic and wait for 2.5 hours to see a doctor for 5 seconds.
3. Take the kids to the park.
4. Make a monster batch of cookies.
5. Read 6 McLean's magazines (I happen to really enjoy this magazine and if anyone would like to bless me with a subscription for my birthday {Oct.13th} I would promise to love you forever).
6. Convince Rhys to get a haircut.
7. Prep the kitchen for James to paint it.

8. Visit the local thrift store and buy a bunch of fabric, a table runner, two tank tops and a whole pile of children's books for $4.
9. Exercise 5 times.
10. Take the kids to play with their cousin's on two occasions.
11. Keep a way tidier house.
12. Successfully take care of three toddlers (meaning that they actually get fed and their bums actually get changed).
13. Overall feel like a better more useful human being.

I say, you have been one busy lady. I have said it from the beginning, and i'll say it again, Facebook is evil. There i got that out of the way. Kuddos to you for staying away from facebook for a week. I know people who can't last a few hours away. Never go on to facebook again and i'll truly be impressed.

one great quote...

"whenever i get gloomy with the state of the world, i think of the arrivals gate at heathrow airport. general opinion makes out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, i don't see that. seems to me that love is everywhere. often it's not articularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there. fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. when the planes hit the twin towers, i have reason to believe that none of the calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge, they were all messages of love. if you look for it, i've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around." -Love Actually
