Happy Thanksgiving {& We May Have a Problem}

We are absolutely that family that is one step away from over-commitment.
Sometimes I long to have more free time.
To lounge around for the weekend.
Enjoy the farmers market after Fiona's dance class.
Take a leisurely drive to cabin and stop at the vegetable stands.
Instead we jam-pack every day full of events, visits, dinners etc.

You know what though?
I actually love it.

My name is Cheryl and I'm a multi-task-aholic.
I am much more productive if I have no time to spare.
I get annoyed if my poor husband moves from one room to the next without tidying on the way.
{I mean, are you really going to make that trip to the kitchen without that dirty dish?}
I have to force myself to go to the bank with only one cheque to deposit.
It borders on a problem folks.

This weekend was a classic multi-task weekend.
Who needs more than one long weekend to replace Jeff's wardrobe, go to dance class, record an album, attend a baby shower 3 hours away, two thanksgiving dinners, one sleepover, one birthday party, bring back a log splitter, take the dock out at the lake and do payroll anyways?
Not us.

Now I know I can't be alone here.
Anyone?

I leave you with these super hot photos of the dock removal process.
Jeff looking so impressed that I'm recording the moment.
If you look closely you can see his thoughts. 
"Seriously? You're going to blog THIS?"

Hope you had a great {slightly less scheduled} Thanksgiving weekend!

  1. Happy (belated) Thanksgiving to you and yours! Such lovely pictures. As long as you don't mind being scheduled, then I don't see a problem with it.

    I am the same way with carrying things from one room to another. Going upstairs? There's always something you can take with you. My husband on the other hand will put a dirty dish on the kitchen counter, just inches above the dishwasher. I don't get it!

    Wishing you a lovely day.
    xoxo
