Living not blogging: Presidents Day edition.

Yes, People.

Even with the relocation & move to a new ‘hood I am still that mom.

Im excited when the Tornado has a day off from school & even MORE SO when it’s not because Ive slunk up to the office, fabricated an excuse & stolen her away for a day of play.

big thelma and little louise?

 Today, to my delight, is a school-sanction playday.

An opportunity to git up early, work-like-the-wind, and spend the rest of the day living my priorities.

Ive planned some of this:

Get yours yet?

Lots of this:

calloused monkey bar hands.

Perhaps some joyriding:

the HAT kills me every time.

Definitely this. LOUDLY:

ahhh nappage…

We will probably get new tattoos:

Im eager to finish my back piece!

hers is almost done…

Im not yet certain what else….

must.explore.new.hood.

All I know is Im typically this:

love my RAW THREADS

but not today.

And you?

Is your “work” technically closed today? Are you self-employed, able to work in the wee hours & gifted daywithchild?What are YOUR plans on this Presidents Day 2013?

Living not BLOGGING (President’s Day edition).

Ahh People.

Today is a great day.

So great Im not even bothering with the ‘I feel badly for those of you who have to work or who dont reside in the USA and have the day off’ dizclaimer.

OH NO SHE DIDNT!!! Oh YES SHE DID!

Ren Man is home.

The child is home.

Im always home home but plan to have my work finished at the CRACK of dawn.

And we’re going to just HANG OUT ALL DAY.

First we will workout.

Non-traditionally of course because (all together now) fitness isn’t about fitting in.

(if youre joining via a reader theres a 20 second video below of the Husband doing creative corework in the domicile)

Next we will be doing a President’s Day craft:

(Im seriously excited about this for some odd reason. Pretzels, frosting, all reminiscent of my FAVE Lincoln Logs toy? What’s not to love?)

After all *that* excitement we shall unwind with some family yoga time (please to enjoy the ephemeral video below where Ren Man & Tornado demonstrate the obscure and seemingly random well-known Lizard on a Rock pose.  Then please to grab a partner & attempt at home):

Then, if this misfit gets her way, we shall cap the day off with a family outing to an educational film or somewhere equally serious & fraught with learning potential.

And you?

What are you up to on this Monday?

Will you join us in frosting & frivolity?

Core-work & (movie) candy?

Please to hit us all up in the comments…
