So Much to Do

I never imagined myself as the domestic type. I don't know why, but slaving over recipes and despairing over the state of my pantry just never seemed that important to me. I used to wonder how stay-at-home Moms kept themselves busy all day, especially once the kids were in school. No more.

Maybe now that I'm home more often I have more time to notice things. Maybe I'm just trying to keep myself busy. At any rate, right now I'm feeling guilty about being at the computer because I have a pantry to organize and a dresser to paint before I get supper ready. I've already done the grocery shopping, gone to my dr.'s appointment, made sure my friend's son caught the bus to his afternoon kindergarten, made lunch, and got caught up on my email and facebook. It's only 1:30pm and I don't know how I'm going to get everything done.

What's most interesting to me is how much I enjoy doing most of things. But hey, I'm into the third trimester now so it could all be just "nesting", making sure our home is ready for baby. I'm sure I'll have my hands full with two small children; the pot roast (like the one I made for supper on Friday) might have to wait.
