I remember a time when Saturday meant going outside to play, spending time with your family, hanging out with friends, date night, or just relaxing. Now, today, it only means one thing: Laundry. For those of you who don't know. I HATE laundry. I strive to own enough clothes that by the time I finish wearing everything and cycle back around, things have aired out all on their own and now remarkably clean or I have forgotten if they are clean or dirty. It's a system that has worked for quite some time now, but, I'm starting a new chapter in my life and well, simply, Donovan won't go for it, lol. So here I am, Saturday morning, faced with about 10 loads of laundry. See, it's not the "putting the clothes in the washer" that I have a problem with. It's just that laundry is such a multi-step process. I want a "set-it-and-forget-it" solution. You know, then it wouldn't be such a problem. But you have to wash it, then dry it, then fold it, then take it upstairs, blah blah blah blah, and not just once but every time that little buzzer goes off! I hate it! Oh, well, this blog is a response to not wanting to do it.
Donovan and I went to a race track last night. It was a local small track where young kids get their first start in racing. It was fun, aside from the fact that Kaleb, the 7 year old boy I watch at nights, came with us. He asked SO many questions, that I thought my head would explode. People are constantly asking me if being a nanny and being around cute babies all day makes me want one. It's the complete opposite. I don't want any now! I like my peace and quiet and special time with Donovan, we have so little of it as it is, that it's precious to me now. No kids, for at least 3 years! Firm!
Anyway, I promised myself to start the laundry process at 12, and now it's 12:04, so, *big breath* I guess this is it. If I don't post another blog in a week, come find me, I probably drowned in a pile of dirty clothes!
