Crap I've Done

I need to keep an on-going list of all the things I get done in my "time off" that would explain why I've been so tired at night.  Yes, I am sleeping fairly well, so I guess that's good.  But I tend to run out of steam right as I cozy up with my library book.  That's a bummer.  So let's see if I can figure out why based on what I've done this week, and it's in no particular order...

Camp Rustown

Got up by 6:30 daily and got the boys' breakfasts, made and packed lunches, repainted the garage door, cleaned the front door and repainted the trim around it, scrubbed the bricks in front of the door, uprooted the dead Mexican Heather and planted more, aerated that  landscaping area and mulched it, re-potted a plant, swept the patio (twice),  hauled the yard waste bags to the curb, blogged, e-mailed, shopped for groceries, cooked dinner every night, did approx. 10 loads laundry, scrubbed kids bathroom top to bottom and re-caulked their tub and shower, got my hair cut, made 5 packages cookie dough to freeze, baked a cake, cleaned all the floors in the house, changed sheets on my bed, ironed for 30 minutes, called my mother, called my sister-in-law, washed the van, washed my car, ran the dishwasher and un-loaded it daily, sanded and painted one of four kitchen chairs, cleaned the hamster cage, cleaned the cat box, paid bills on-line, gave myself a pedicure, mopped my bathroom, vacuumed my bedroom and the hall, put up all my painting and sanding supplies that was stored in the lost and found basket, bought a bigger basket for everyone's shoes and organized my sandals in the told one, cleaned off the kitchen counter and added two new baskets for storage...
Seriously.  I feel brain fried just thinking of it. I still have crap to do tomorrow - meeting my mother for lunch, having my sister over to see my patio progress, making dinner, getting ready for work on the weekend....
ouch!

Wow you have been one busy mommy! I would not be able to stay awake either to read a book...I'd be out when my head hit the pillow.
