A good day

All in all, today was a good day.

1. I got to sleep in until 9:45am (but only because Mum had the boys overnight last night so I could go out for drinks with some people from work).
2. I got to catch up with Debbie for a cuppa and a chat (which it feels like I haven't done in ages).
3. I got to play with the boys instead of just being Grumpy Mum (amazing what a bit of sleep can do!)
4. I actually managed to do some housework without feeling resentful that I was the only one doing it (because I wasn't .. the boys helped and it was almost voluntary!)
5. It was a beautiful day and the boys went outside to play without me threatening to lock them out there for their vitamin D dose.
6. I didn't need to use the dryer for the washing because of the aforementioned beautiful day. Freshly washed towels that smell of sunshine .. mmmm!
7. I enjoyed the boys' sillyness (is that even a word?) and I even joined in!
8. I treated the boys to McDonald's for dinner ... just because. And they behaved at the restaurant .. bonus!
9. I got to really see how much my boys are changing but also how much they are staying the same.
10. Today, I liked my life.
