So, yesterday was a terribly busy day.

Besides getting all four kids (the oldest of whom is 5) fed and bathed (which should count as a full day’s work) I had a meeting with the Realtor who is selling our old house (yes, the hot one). We hadn’t found a babysitter, so Hubbyhubs and I had the kids with us. After that meeting we had ANOTHER meeting an hour away about our NEW house–a construction meeting thingy. We were flabbergasted to see that the whole thing is framed out, the roof is on, and the windows are installed. They were working on the electric when we got there. Our once far away dream is becoming a reality! There was much traipsing around the construction site with all four kids in tow, including one who peed his pants. Sigh.

From there, Hubs dropped me off at his car which I took out to our old house while he took the kids “home” to his parents’ house, where we are currently living. I spent THREE HOURS going through crap in the basement, sorting, arranging, etc.

Then I went to my Releif Society meeting(a women’s group devoted to service and kindness and empowering women) and mingled and giggled and had a nice little well-earned break from the crazinesses of real life.

Then I went BACK to the old house and continued the basement project. Didn’t leave until after 11:00 p.m. Got “home” at about midnight.

And WHY does any of this matter?

Because I did it all in sassy three-inch heels, thank you very much!!!
