In order to get the house fixed, the kids got to play games late

I can’t think of one subject to focus on. It was a normal, busy, sunny Arizona weekend for our family: complete with remodel project, a birthday party and a visit to grandma’s.

Yes, remodel project. Again. We’ve started the upstairs. My superman husband and a friend nearly completed the tile in the master bathroom yesterday. It started Friday night. I went to a friend’s to get the tile saw and on the way home my daughter fell asleep. So when I made it to the driveway - after driving 35 mph on side streets - I wrapped her up and put her into bed. Mr. Reese and I started tearing the bathroom apart while our son looked at a Lego catalog. That kept him busy for two hours, until 10 p.m.

I know. He should have been in bed. But we had more to do and I THOUGHT he would fall asleep on my bed. Not only did that not happen, but at 10 p.m., his sister woke up.

So what did I do? I let them play video games while we finished in the bathroom. At 11:30 p.m. we finally all crawled into bed. They were only mildly moody on Saturday, thank goodness.

Is tomorrow really Monday?
