I am here to clear up any misconceptions once and for all. Well at least for today.
So I missed park day this week. It just so happens that park day fell on the same day that my dear friends and I got up and went to the temple at 5 am. And it was also the same day that my sister flew in, her plane scheduled to arrive 10 minutes before we were supposed to be at the park. And I, being the person put in charge of picking her up.
Now I have heard from about 100 people that they missed me at the park (it is so nice to be loved) and that they heard that I went to the temple at an unreasonable hour so they all figured I was sleeping. (Ok, it was more like 3 people. But figuring the amount of people who were actually at the park, that is a lot.)
OK
Hello
Now I realize that SOMEONE (who shall remain nameless) came to my house a few weeks ago at 9:15 and I was still in my PJ's and she told everyone it was 11:00. But still people.
Granted, I have been known to still be in PJ's at 10 or 11 from time to time. FROM TIME TO TIME. But it isn't because I am just lying around in bed eating chocolate cake. I do have a baby who wakes up between 6:30 and 7:00 to eat EVERY MORNING.
On days that I still have my PJ's on when it is 10 am or so it is usually because I have fed a baby, made the other kids breakfast, done a few loads of laundry, looked something up on the computer for Steve, posted on my blog, loaded the dishwasher, fed a baby again, looked at the clock and realized I am about to take the kids swimming in an hour anyway. So why get dressed now?
Now the plan was this: my sister was going to call me when she got off the plane so that I could come and pick her up. I figured I would pick her up and we would go to the park for a little play time and to eat lunch. Now at this point I have to be honest and say that I didn't actually pick her up even though I was locked and loaded and standing by for the call. My mom was running a little late to work that morning and was passing the airport just at the same exact time my sister was getting off the plane. So she picked her up and I was at home waiting for her to get to my house so we could go to the park. When she got to my house I found out that she and her children had been up since 2:45 am our time. So they were not really in the mood for the park. Therefore we just stayed at my house and ate.
So the point of this whole big old story is: I am sorry I missed park day and I am not as
LAZY
as some people think. At least this week I wasn't.
So there!

I noticed you are reading "my sisters keeper," it is a good book, just a lot of cuss words, but good book.
Well who got your panties in a wad?
I hope they read your blog.
Kathy, we are reading it for my book club this month. I just started it yesterday but it is really good so far.
Farrah, my panties are not in a wad. I was about to start griping again, but I will stop myself. It just made me feel better to set the record straight.
And just so everyone knows, I am not mad or anything. I'm really not.
What's the big deal with staying in your p.j's until 11 o'clock sometimes I am in my p.j’s all day long! I think "people" should mind their own business!!!!
I went back and read what I wrote and it sounded like I was mad. But really I honestly am not. I just wanted to let people know that I am a grown up and I actually can wake up at 5 am and stay awake all day like a big girl.
Ally, I am a grown up and if I wake up at 5 am, I can't stay awake all day.
And Coren, it is okay to stay in your pjs if you are in that pretty white gown of yours.
