I was up earlier than I am normally for work. I dropped the girls off at the bus stops, went to the grocery store, the doctors office to pick up a prescription, the pharmacy (twice), the library, I cleaned, did laundry and suggested eating out. This was so not what amazing things I had planned for me. Why did I stray you ask? Hurricane Ike...nothing like a man to ruin your plans. I tell ya!
