I was a bit short this morning but held my tongue. Dh noticed and asked why i was irritable and i said "i just am" and left it at that. Mom wanted me to take her to the library today (a half hour drive each way) and i had things i wanted to do. Dh said he'd take mom to town!
While they were gone i made mushroom and wild rice soup (YUM!) and a vegan "clam chowder" - not quite as yum, and a cheezy chickpea recipe i've been wanting to try. I also cleaned mom's bathroom including the floor.
I just kind of cleaned up after myself, soaking the dishes and clearing the counters. Then i went downstairs to chill a bit. I was sitting less than 5 minutes before they came home. Sure glad i stayed on task!
