The Sound Of Silence

I had to take a minute to blip Simon & Garfunkel- The Sound of Silence because that’s exactly what I’ve been enjoying today.  Hubby lined up a small remodel job this week, so I’m enjoying every single minute of this.  No loud tv.  No obnoxious shooting sounds coming from Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
and the PlayStation 3…just me, the dog (who’s passed out cold and slightly snoring), the cat, and my pint of Chunky Monkey (because Ingles doesn’t carry Banana Split :().

Ahhhh I love it!  I forgot how easy it was to actually accomplish something when I’ve got the whole day to myself.  Last week I felt like I spent all week doing laundry, dishes, and my typical household chores.  It’s nice to get everything done in one day again so I can actually concentrate on work most of the week.  I can’t wait until he’s back to work full time.  I love him, but he knows exactly how to drive a girl crazy…and not in a good way.  Then again, don’t all men have that gene?

Anywho, I wasn’t really planning to spend much time online today, but since  I’ve finished my housework I have plenty of time to get to work.  I thought about spending sometime outside with the dog, but after 5 minutes I was pouring sweat.  Pregnancy and heat just aren’t making a good combo today…even though it’s actually only 88 degrees out.

I think I’ll get a little work done, and then I might just spend some time cooking a decent meal for once.  This week has been full of meals I could slap together in 10 minutes or less, but I actually feel like spending a little time in the kitchen making something nice.  It’s amazing how instead of complaining about cooking and cleaning I’m actually enjoying it right now.  I guess it’s because I know once Elliana enters this world I won’t have time to do either.

    I totally emphasize with you and the whole “Call of Duty 4″ bit. My boyfriend is actually playing it right now.

    I long for a night without loud shooting noises and screamed obscenities. :)
