A day of rest?

So the relatives from out of town are gone again. J is sleeping on the chair, little A is outside playing barefooted in the grass and mud, middle A is gardening with nana, and big A is vegging in front of the TV and me.... Well I'm avoiding the housework. A while ago a friend listed some of the things that she's want as luxury items for herself and it got me thinking, what would I want... So here's my list of the moment...

1. A great pair of hiking boots, walking stick, an extra GPSr and a really comfortable backpack to haul my geocaching stuff in.

2. New sandals. I have 3 or 4 pairs of Berks (My only sandals) and they are all so wore that they are falling apart. I just can't seem to part with them even though I can't wear them since they have no soles left!

3. A housekeeper. I don't mind the laundry or the cooking. I just can't stand the cleaning, dusting, vacuuming, and all the junk. YUCK!! It would be great if someone else cleaned up after I made the mess for a change.

4. Wining the lottery (a BIG one). That way I won't have to worry about anyone in the family going to college or not seeing my sister since she's going to Europe soon. it would be great to be able to just jump on a plane at anytime to go see her instead of having to make plans months or years at a time.

Ok so the last one is fantasy. But really is it so much to ask for?

More relatives just showed up. Do I have to go visit or can I stay here for a few more minutes? The kids just ran out back so it should be quiet for a little while. Ok, ok I'll go and visit.

Later gater.
