Okay, so yesterday I did do a post, but it was more end-of-Christmas and beginning of New Year type musings. I didn't list the day's three good things. I figured I'd combine the posts here. They are going to be short and sweet, so I can get my butt to bed at a reasonable hour for a change since my alarm is set for 6:00 a.m. tomorrow. LAME.

1. We did take the Christmas tree down. As I said in yesterday's post, I must have worked myself up into emotional readiness, because my living room doesn't feel sad and empty without it.
2. Jeff and I watched yet another movie together last night. We didn't finish it, because it got too late, but I just feel like we've spent so much time together this week and I'm grateful as all get out about that.
3. My mom called to talk about plans to do Disneyworld with the kids sometime in 2018. We're only in the talking stages at this point, but the very thought is exciting. I've never been to Disneyland or Disneyworld, so I'll be as awestruck as the kids.

I can't believe this is it. Tomorrow, it's back to real life. Back to work. Back to the babysitter. I am both ready and not ready at all.
I love my job, so I'm ready to get back into my work there. I'm ready to have a reason to do my hair and put on makeup and real clothes and look like a presentable person. But I'm going to miss this family time with my boys. It's been so much better than I even imagined, all of us being together this week and I'm sad it's coming to an end. I'm sad about sharing them with the rest of the world again. I am greedy, and would prefer to keep them all to myself.
Nonetheless, here are the day's good things:
1. Napping on the couch, by accident this afternoon while Grayson slept. When you're a parent, napping on the couch during the day feels luxurious.
2. The Bachelor starts tonight! WOOT! We don't have cable, so I will have to watch it tomorrow, but I'm so freaking excited!
3. Sliding into bed tonight was extra great because I did our sheets today. What's better than a bed with freshly washed sheets?!
Okay, with that, think about me slaving away, and missing my boys at work tomorrow. Wishing whoever is reading this a wonderful week.
