What to do, What to do.... :-)

The kids are leaving in a little while to go on retreat for the weekend with their youth group. It has been since last June when they went to camp that I have had more than 3-4 hours to myself (not including school days when I'm working). So what to do???? haha I really want to go to Columbus, but my bank account is discouraging that. I could go to the local home and garden show, but that would just make me want to get moving on some house repairs/upgrades that, again, my bank account would discourage this year. (Next year will be a different story!) So, I think, after I finish work, that I will get the house cleaned up, living room picked up and swept, dishes done and a quick bite to eat. It always makes me feel better to have the house cleaned up when the kids are gone. Tomorrow morning, I'll catch up on email and listen to a sermon online from when we were gone a few weeks ago. The rest of the weekend will be devoted to stitching. I've got just a few weeks left to finish my auction piece for the Mother-Daughter banquet, and this will be the perfect time to make some progress. Not exactly the most exciting weekend, but I will definitely enjoy it!
