This has been one of those weeks where I have this compulsion and drive to get lots of stuff done. That is very crassly called “gsd,” for “gettin’ shit done” around this house. As in:
Hubs: Hey. How was your day?
Me: Great. I was really gsd.
We have both been known to say that on more than one occasion.
On weeks like this I know I have to go with it, because the feeling doesn’t last long. I never really know when it will fade, but it will. This is the week that I bake and clean and create and make things and cross lots of stuff off a list. Then I add more stuff to the list and keep crossing that stuff off too. Then- wait for it- next week I will serve frozen pizza all week and watch hulu the entire time the kids are down. You will find no sign of anyone “gsd” around here.
This week I made granola energy balls with the kids, returned or exchanged all gifts that required such action (no- not yours, of course!), finished a scarf I was working on, did at least 6 loads of laundry AND put it all away (this is where I always falter), MADE A POT RACK FOR MY KITCHEN (more on that later), and generally ruled as a mom the whole time. Add in diapers and meals and all of that too.
Reaganing.
I’ve been doing the same thing around here (minus the DIYer pot rack)…feels great!
next time you wanna “gsd”, come on over to 911 and have at it!! lol
haha- i’ll do it!
