A.A.D.D.

Today I had a true case of A.A.D.D. (Adult Attention Deficit Disorder). This is when you start one project, but then get int erupted by another project so you never finish the first project. Also known as "if you give a mouse a cookie" syndrome.
I got up, got Lily of to school, then started to get myself ready for the day.
Then started the laundry.
Cedric had gotten up so early that I put him down for a nap at 9am.
Then I finally ate breakfast.
However, I have to be doing something while I'm eating, so I decided to start writing my talk for Sunday while I ate my breakfast.
While working on my talk I remembered I needed to clean the bathrooms. The best time to do this is while Cedric's napping.
So as I was leaving the computer to go clean the bathrooms Tom called saying I should go to Redbox.com to reserve a movie, "Cloudy, with a Chance of Meatballs". The kids wanted to see it and there was only one left.
Just then Cedric woke up.
So instead of cleaning the bathroom or reserving the movie, I finished getting ready for the day and we took off to go get a Redbox and to Walmart.
After shopping I had to put the food away, but the boys were hungry so I got busy feeding them.
While eating my lunch I started working on the preschool evaluations I had tested the preschoolers on this week.
Then Lily came home from school.
(Still working on evaluations)
Then Lily's friends came over for a play date.
Cedric was getting fussy and needed another nap, so I went to put him down. However, his room was a mess from Lily's friends so I got busy helping them clean up.
Then I put Cedric down for a nap and Tom called.
Going in my room I remembered I was supposed to be doing laundry.
So I went to switch the laundry.
However, I could hear Cedric crying so I decided to take the clean laundry up to our room and to check on Cedric.
Meanwhile, I had the other load of laundry half in the drier half in the washer.
While I was upstairs I decided to quickly fold the clothes so they didn't get wrinkled.
Then my neighbor showed up to pick up some of Lily's friends.
I finally finished switching the laundry.
Then I started putting away more groceries, but I remembered Cedric was asleep and I still needed to clean the bathrooms.
Lily and her other friend wanted to watch a movie, so I told them they needed to clean up first and I started helping them.
Then I went up to clean the bathroom and saw the laundry on my bed and went to get the next load.
Then I started putting away more groceries.
Then I went to clean the bathroom, but the kids needed more help cleaning up.
Then they were ready for their movie.
I finally made it up, got the cleaning supplies out and was about to start cleaning when...
Cedric woke up!
I took him down to watch the movie with the kids.
Then Lily's other friend's mom showed up.
Then I went to clean the bathroom and it ended up taking me an hour and a half to clean both bathrooms because Cedric kept fussing, or getting into things while I was cleaning.
Jeff fell asleep watching the movie.
When I finally finished cleaning the bathrooms it was time to take the boys to get their haircuts.
I woke Jeff up (at 5:15pm) and dropped the boys off with Tom at the hair dressers.
Then I headed home to finally clean up lunch so I could make dinner.
Then I got a call from my mom and went upstairs to talk and saw the laundry.
I started folding laundry again.
Then I came down and finished cleaning up the kitchen.
Then I made dinner.
Right when dinner was ready my mom showed up to go over clothes for our family pictures tomorrow.
We decided I needed to go buy me a new shirt(long story).
Then we ate dinner.
Right after dinner my sister called to see if she could go with me to get the shirt.
So I left Tom and the kids and went to get a new shirt.
Then we stopped off at her house and I borrowed some of her clothes and jewelry.
Then I got home and showed Tom the clothes.
I needed a necklace for my new shirt, so I started looking at my necklaces.
Then I decided to finally blog about my day.
So it's now 9:30pm and my talks not finished, the kitchens still a mess from dinner, I haven't finished preschool evaluations, there's one more load of laundry still in the drier, there's laundry on my bed that needs to be folded, there's toys still out and the kids still need to go to bed (they are watching "Cloudy, With a Chance of Meatballs" for the second time). Not to mention the things I haven't even started yet today, cleaning the fish tank, going over my lesson for Sunday, getting things ready for next weekend, but that's another story.
