As if I needed a reminder that distance between family members stinks, I got one tonight. Googling weather information while checking a cell phone fifty thousand times does not make for a peaceful evening. I told my husband this is exactly why we all need to be in one central location. His response was only to indicate that if that was the case, we would all go together. At least I wouldn't have to wonder and wait.
Other than that, it's been a relatively calm day. I've had things on my mind which can only result in one thing: a very clean house. Not a speck of laundry (okay, maybe a stray sock or two... or seven, but hey, you can actually see the bottom of the laundry basket). The hardwood floors practically glow, the toilets have been scrubbed, and I even dusted the ceiling fans. Yep. When this mind gets troubled, the house definitely benefits.
School work? Well, I'm not that desperate for distraction. It will get done when it always gets done... sometime around late Sunday evening. Six elective courses left. I'm taking fun stuff like constitutional law and homeland security. Yeah, I know... my mind is a little twisted in terms of what I label fun. What can I say? There has got to be a reason why HE has wired me the way He has... I just keep waiting to see what that reason might be.
And if nothing else?
Well, I make a darn good housewife.
And I'm not afraid to admit it.
Did I mention my hardwood floors glow?

Being a housewife is a NOBLE profession. Meanwhile, all that course material you're going to tackle sounds like some SERIOUS work to me. I guess the world would be pretty boring if we all were wired the same.
