And on the day after Easter...

I am sitting in my living room - randomly checking emails even though I am taking a day off from work. So far today I have been decently productive... two loads of laundry completed, child delivered to and then picked up from preschool, dishwasher cleared of clean dishes and loaded up with dirty ones, letters to fellow committee members put in the mail, lunch consumed, and a snack devoured (his... not mine... I'm off sweets for a while now after yesterday's feasts).

So what to do now??? Wait for the chocolate rush to go through his system so we can appear in public and not disgrace ourselves. That's why I'm sitting here and telling the world about my absolutely enthralling day so far...

The Easter Bunny made an appearance and Matthew was very excited about his treats. The Hot Wheels chocolate bunny was a huge success, and that is what I am currently waiting to run its course as he settles down to a normal 5-year-olds antics, rather than a souped up one's antics. The Curious George puzzles were also great... and the glow in the dark dinosaurs??? Tops - couldn't have been more excited. Guess the Easter Bunny finally got it right this year. Maybe it helps that he started preparing for our house earlier this year than he did last year.

Right... so I think I have a bathroom to clean now... or maybe I should get the Christmas Tree put away?? I finally unplugged the lights this morning... I needed to plug in the printer for those letters to fellow committee members I talked about earlier.

*** UPDATE AT 3:36PM ***
It is official... Christmas and Winter are over... the tree and all associated decorations littered around the living room have been taken down/packed away. (For at least the next 7.5-8 months, hehehe) So let's see... the next holiday that I would decorate for is... hmm... guess we will be decoration free for the next 7.5 to 8 months. Happy Spring, everybody!!
