Hibernation Season


I tend to get myself in situations where I relax too much these days.  It is hybernation season for me.  For some of you who do not know me I can't stand to be cold.  If I had it my way I would live in a bathing suit and of course a summer dress and  "g's" to keep the fatih.  I have not done much around the house since the kids have been home. I figure why clean they just mess it up anyway.  Well it has caught up.  As you remember Mr. Kenmore is still on strike so my are my hands. 
Last night I started ...yes on the sabbath day I did dishes.  Let me back up.  Hyberantion Season I tend not to cook, clean, wash, dust unless it is necessary.  I wait until the boys have taken their last pee and then clean the pot.  When no more spoons or bowls are available I clean them...oh and btw I bought plastic spoons and plates to make my life easier.  B-man does the cooking and when he is not here it is cereal or something easy.  Not sure why I get like this.  Have been pondering it for a while and it is what it is.  I just have to move through it and hope I come out landing on my two feet.

Although I am still in Hyberantion Season I woke up today before 9:30am to get the kids off to school(  a first in 2 weeks) . I love to sleep in and now that my kids are older I can.  I feel a bit more energized not too much on my plate today just more dishes, bills, wash, cleaning up a cabinet that spilled a whole bottle of extra virgin olive oil, take down Christmas decorations, mail christmas cards and packages ( hybernation season).  Who cares when you get your Christmas cards I actually like to see them after the holiday.  

It is a new day ...heck it is a new year 
Happy 2010...stay warm for crying out loud
