My mother is coming tomorrow and will be staying with us for the rest of the week.  Too bad I have been so distracted at the beach… uhm… I meant to get things done over a reasonable period of time.  It looks like I will be getting a lot of things done today.  I really want the woman to believe in the lemon fresh, public radio (well, I actually do have public radio on most of the time I am home lately) listening, sparkling, and well organized show I plan to put on for her.  It’s not really a show- it is just how things would be in here if: 1) I didn’t work any overnight shifts, 2) we didn’t have thing to do outside of the house (uhm: beaches, playgrounds, ‘the coffee store’, etc) 3) we didn’t have a three-year old.

Whatever.  I think my mom knows that my stove-top usually has a little evidence of the last meal cooked on it.  Its not like I have dishes piled in the sink or anything.

Hmm.  As I write this the day is starting a little more quickly than I had anticipated.  My husband is no longer swearing at the hot water in the shower and my son is no longer singing about Halloween (its always a good time of year to do that, right?).  I suppose I need to stop hear and get the little person to the park so I can come back and put a spit shine on this old place.

Oh yeah, pics of the beach (poor quality because they are from my phone) where we have been spending all of our free time.  Yes!
