Blogging Excuses

I Want to Blog, but … (pick your favorite)

• I am in the midst of converting this here blog to Word Press (I just don't have time to keep up with the blogging engine anymore) and it is sucking ALL my time
• my kids are so darn cute and I can't stop staring at their darling little faces.
• we're heading out of town again this weekend and someone needs to pack!
• I'm about half passed out from my tempo run this AM. Long runs, faster pace than normal. Yikes.
• Tabby and I have to make Valentines for her class.
• Ben is drawing himself a bath. *
• it's time to concoct the Pioneer Woman's French Toast Bake so we can eat yummy things tomorrow morning.
• someone has to shovel the walk!
• Big Bang Theory is on and I have to watch it.
• my office is freezing and I've got to rub a couple of highlighters together to start a fire.
• all work and no play makes Jess a dull girl.

*True story – we went to a Superbowl Party on Sunday. The kids were given the run of the upstairs but Matt and I (as well as other parents) were checking on them intermittently. I was downstairs bidding a friend farewell. Ben had been playing near us and just then I noticed he was gone. I mentioned he was not there and my friend said noted that he had been there not 30 seconds ago. I sent Matt off to check on him and a few seconds later the hosting Dad came downstairs holding Ben who was wet from toe to mid-calf. Apparently he'd run upstairs, gotten in the tub and turned it on all in the span of about 90 seconds. Nice job, kiddo.
