CTL+ALT+DEL



Today we really needed a reboot after dealing with the VA yesterday, it just so happened that I had plans to take the girls apple picking with my sister and nephew so Will would have some time alone.  It was perfect timing really.  I have been wanting to take the kids apple picking since the moment I found out I was going to be a mom!  Growing up in New England it wasn't really fall without a trip to the orchard. 

We almost canceled today because it was supposed to rain but the rain held off and we had a great day.  TC woke up at 6AM asking if it was time to go to the farm yet - she was beyond excited.  We had a really great day, I took the girls to Target at 8AM because I just couldn't handle the thought of them apple picking without the proper fashionable boots!  We got home with just enough time to change and head out the door to meet my sister.  It was cool and overcast and kind of the perfect day for apple picking.  I couldn't have imagined a better mother daughters day.

Will got a few hours at home alone which is a Godsend when you spend the days listening to little girls scream all week. 


It was perfect.  Tomorrow starts a new week, here's hoping it can be smooth and productive.

  1. Your day sounds perfect, and is making me want to sink my teeth into some fresh apple! We're still just getting ourselves through peach and plum season ... so grateful that we can have local apples!

    But this is the best too: "Will got a few hours at home alone which is a Godsend when you spend the days listening to little girls scream all week." Even without TBI, I was desperate for a bit of time to stare at walls in my house alone. Being the at home parent is intense and relentless, as well as all the good stuff. An occasional reset is essential.
