My husband just asked me what I wanted to do today.
My answer is nothing really. I don't want to make any plans. I just want to let the kids watch tv. Play. Make a mess.
Last week was a blur, and I never really felt on top of anything. We ordered pizza one night for dinner. I was pretty close to late picking up the kids on two nights. I felt like I was scrambling all week long.
So for today, I've got some things that I want to get done. (I'm also mentally working on a list of things to do when I plan for a week's vacation, i.e. time off work to do work at home, sometime in May.) But for now, I just want to try to get ahead so I can feel organised and prepared for the week ahead.
Here's my list for today:

Here's my list for today:
- Finally get around to explaining a variance in my T4 return for our payroll account for our nanny. A $200 credit is watiting for us, if I can just figure out what accounted for the difference.
- Pick up our vegetables from the farmers' market winter box program. Combine this with a trip to the park with the kids.
- Plan my meals for the week.
- Go to the grocery store.
- Make dinner for tonight and at least one other night this week.
- Oooh. My hair appointment!
- Sign permission slips and registration forms for summer camps and programs.
- Drycleaning drop-off.
- Two or three loads of laundry.
- And finally, tidy up the mess left by kids playing with relatively little adult participation all day long.
