Quiet Weekend

Well the weekend was fairly uneventful.  We didn't do much.  Saturday we went to Target for a couple things.  We got out of there as fast as possible since Ayden wasn't behaving himself and Mason needed a nap.  Sunday we went out to take back some movies, get milk and a newspaper.  That's it!  I organized the laundry since I have SO much to do today.  Every laundry basket is full and we've used about every towel we own either for showers and baths or sopping up water from the leaking washing machine.

The repair man came this morning and fixed the problem.   Ninety-four dollars, two visits and 30 minutes later the washer is fixed and I started a load before he even got out of the driveway.

I will start making calls today to get some estimates on lawn mowing.  I am no stranger to mowing a lawn.  My sister and I used to have to mow the lawn when we were young.  I mowed the lawn once since Dominic and I have been married.  He was gone for training in Germany and we got a warning notice on our door when we lived in base housing.  I HAD to mow the lawn and couldn't wait for him to get back.  I did and had no problems but if Dominic had it his way he wouldn't let anyone mow his lawn, including me.  I'm not sure why that is exactly.  I guess he thinks that no one will do as good of a job as he can.  Anyhow, I have offered many times to mow and he won't let me.  That's not why I will hire someone.  The reason I have to hire someone is because I have a 1 year old that needs constant attention.  I wouldn't be able to mow while he naps either because then Ayden would be in the house alone for an extended period of time.  He's too young to be left unattended.  So we'll see what happens.

Time to go switch laundry around!
