Nothing big

So we had one of those weeks that everyday was full but nothing note/blog worthy. Payton had Girl Scouts on Monday and it was our cookie prep night. Keep her in mind if cookies are your guilty pleasure and contact us on or after the 27th. Chad had a boys game night Friday and I went crazy and cleaned the house for over 3 hours. It is amazing what I can do when I don't plan on it ;) Saturday we went to chick fil a with some friends for lunch and spent the afternoon tiling the shower (I feel good knowing we worked on it but bummed that it is still not done and probably won't be for another few weeks...maybe).
Payton lost another tooth *sigh* I think that is the last one for a few weeks. She only has 2 more that will fall out before we get a few years relief. I will have to catch a picture of her again- it feels like every other day I am updating her smile.
So I also read this great blog and I am going to try to change the way I think about my schedule.
It is about the idea of 'busy'. Here is a preview.
"Let's abolish the word busy. When you ask someone, “How have you been?” and they say, “Busy,” it doesn't mean anything. I’m sick of it. We all have the same 24 hours to fill. Everyone's are filled with something.

The difference is that the “busy” people feel frenetic during those hours. Those of you who walk around telling everyone how busy you are, get a grip. Make some tough choices and calm down. There’s a big difference between a busy day and a full day. The former is so frantic that you aren’t effective.

Don't tell me you can't help it. You can."

So yeah there you go- I'll let you know how my full and productive week goes.
