Day two of lying in my bed with two of my babies. As I posted earlier on Facebook, I'm so thankful that I attend Arkansas State University and am no in high school or elementary school because I have one week left of my vacation. It's going to be a pretty lazy week around here. My mother, stepfather, and Austin are all back in school so they won't be over. My friend Max returned to work following his 6 week leave after surgery, so he won't be over. Jesse works every day except for Friday, so the house will stay clean.
As I lay here I hear the gentle roar of the insulation pumping truck in the pseudo driveway of the house being constructed next door. Needless to say, Barkley has been upset by said roar since about 10 this morning. Alas, I have another day of barking/yelping to contend with. Each day, that child teaches me more and more that I named him correctly; even though he was actually named after one of my favorite vacation spots, Lake Barkley in Kentucky.
I have a few projects to complete around the house, so let's see how many I will complete today. Nothing major, just organizing the utility drawer in the kitchen, repainting a tray I purchased last week while antiquing, and painting those damn flowers in the hallway. We got them months ago and have been procrastinating with the "paint job" ever since. I had planned on having them painted by the time Thanksgiving came. Well, that has since come and gone and I now plan to have them painted by the end of my Christmas break. Check back in March and maybe I will actually be done with them.

Note the white flowers on the right; they are supposed to match the painting on the left (explaining the one flower that has been painted)
I guess I'm back to watching "Samantha Brown's Passport to Europe." I hope that the rest of you have a wonderful Monday and a great first full week of 2010!!!
