Cal and I went to church this morning. I love it when he goes with me. He's totally getting into it. He cracks me up when he sings along to the hymns. It doesn't take much, but that kid is definitely a better singer than me :)
I spent most of the day doing some "spring cleaning." It's been so nice this week, that is was great to open up the windows and get some air coming in. I cleaned the hell out of those boys rooms. I've got the cobwebs out, the windows and window sills cleaned, under the beds, bedding changed, everything dusted, etc. I love it when their rooms are clean like that. Too bad it won't last through tomorrow :) At least I know I've got the dust out of there. The only bad thing is, there isn't a screen on Cal's window in his room. When we came in tonight, there were like a million little black bugs on his walls, his light, the t.v., etc. Thank goodness those little bastards were slow. Brian and I went on a 1/2 hour bug killing expedition. It had to be done. Trust me, I'm one of those people that doesn't kill spiders or other bugs. I put them outside. Anyway, I was worried Cal would be totally traumatized by it and not be able to sleep in his room. But he took our word that we got them all. Damn, I hope he doesn't wake up with bites all over him. We'll never hear the end of it. Plus, he'll be in our room for a week. In addition to their rooms, I got quite a bit of other cleaning and laundry done. Not as much as I wanted (stupid Words game...I'm fully addicted...anyone want to play? lol). I "reward" myself after getting certain things done, with getting to play for a while. I guess it's better than rewarding myself with food.
Speaking of food....I've been way hungry all week. It must be because I've been on the go all day, every day. I'm not used to that. Hopefully it means that my metabolism is working harder.... Today I was crazy, hungry most of the day. I did okay. Not my best day, but I think a fairly decent day overall. Hopefully all of the cleaning burned some calories, because I didn't get any other exercise in today.
I hope you all had an awesome weekend!
