Monday, Monday



It was another very cold day today--ugh. At least the sun shone brightly. I started out with the intention of slogging through all the laundry I needed to do, only to discover I had enough quarters to wash and dry ONE load. And it's a federal holiday, so all banks were closed. Crap. I'd planned a trip to the grocery store and car wash, but was intending to go AFTER laundry. Switch-'em, change-'em. Threw a baseball cap on my head, grabbed my warmest coat and off I went on my errands.

HGTV was doing a marathon of their "international house hunters" show, so that droned on in the background while I dumped, switched over, took out, hung/folded what turned out to be 4 loads of laundry. Ick. I should never have fired that maid (ha ha). At least I could visually "escape" to tropical climes courtesy of the TV. All the shows were taking place in areas like Santa Domingo, Honduras, and Cabo San Lucas. Hey! Maybe I'll become an ex-pat one day...

Meanwhile, there was more drudgery to get through here in freezing friggin' Virginia.

Your maid must have run off with mine lol.

That's it we need to hit the lottery and have a home in one of those warm beachy places for all the siblings and cousins and friends :-)
