Quiet Night

Don't you love free evenings?

I got so much accomplished tonight, and I just felt the need to share. Here's what I can now check off my to-do list:

made the bed

bought groceries

went pumpkin shopping

cleaned out my coupon envelope

tidied my cupboards

washed all the dishes

unpacked my farmers' market bags

emptied our recycleables cupboard

dried laundry

froze a batch of pesto in icecube trays

made a pan of no-fat Trader Joe's brownies

cleaned out my cupboard under the sink AKA the junk collector

unsubscribed from junk mail

got a present ready to deliver

lit a bunch of candles and relaxed!

All this since 5:30 - and our grocery store is 30 minutes away (I know, I know - we live in the boonies)! How did I get the time to do most of these things? Two words: hockey game. Tonight is the first game of the NHL season for Montreal, so Dan went over to watch the game with my dad and brothers. We did go out for supper and buy groceries together, though. It's our mini-date night, and we've only had one since the beginning of supper. It's so nice for things to be slowing down a little.

Happy Thursday!
