To Do:

I tell myself "First I will eat,"
Then I say

"Then I will put away all the clean dishes and then wash all the dirty dishes and clean the rest of the kitchen.
Then I will clean the living room. Then the bedroom and then I will vacuum the house."

Oh no, I stop myself.
"I should do the laundry first so I can do everything else while the laundry is going. But then I have to bike to the store to get some cash and change to wash it. and if I'm going to the store then I should figure out what to have for dinner, so I can pick things up if I need to instead of going back."
So I start to clean the kitchen a little so I have some room to look at cookbooks at the kitchen table.
And then I look at cookbooks until I realize that I'm starving and it's past lunch time and I have yet to even do the first thing on my list.
Eat.
And I think, there's no way I'll survive once kids are thrown into the mix.

Because having a house that you want to keep clean sucks sometimes.
But, I mean... usually it's okay.
Usually I even like it.

But not today.
Blegh. Maybe it's the rain that's got me down.

Things I'd rather be doing

baking souffles
baking a pie
baking pumpkin seeds
baking and frosting animal shaped sugar cookies

playing in leaves
playing with my Holga
playing with Travis in our yard

editing pictures
taking pictures
printing pictures
posting pictures
putting pictures up in my house
looking at pictures from my wedding

going to sleep
going to the store
going on a date
going to see my family
going to watch HP at the dollar theater

snuggling up with hot chocolate
snuggling up in front of a movie
snuggling up next to my husband
snuggling up instead of going to school

Things I have to do today that I REALLY don't want to:

Go to class
Go to work
Do my reading
Do some writing
Take a quiz
Take my meds
Take my lunch with me
Pay attention
Pay the rent
Leave my house and my bed, and the warmth of Travis snuggled up next to me.

Bah.
Being married in the middle of the semester makes going back to school impossibly difficult.
I cannot wait for Thanksgiving Break.
