The kids just left for a sleep over with our best friends.
I decide it’s the perfect time to get some stuff done around the house. It’s goes like this…
• Pick up a toy to put it in son’s room
• Notice son’s room could use some “mom” time
• Start my magic routine of making some things “disappear”
• I want to change out of my dress so I go into my room and change my clothes
• I notice the clothes need washed so I start a load of laundry
• After I put the hamper away, I notice three things piled up that need put in the kitchen
• Put the first tin container on the counter for snacks
• Start cleaning the counter
• Decide an item on the counter can be put up above
• Item goes above and I realize I need to put something else from the counter in our room
• Walk to my son’s room and realize…THIS is where it all started!!
• I’m now scrolling the socials because, well, the kids are away for the night and I don’t HAVE to do anything!
If you got this far…👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 now tell me, please tell me, these “If you give a mom a task” distractions happen to you too?!
Pictured here is the tin that got me truly distracted!
