Aaaahhh...

Labor day.

I took the day off today. I told Nick on Friday that Monday was to be MINE. So this morning I cleaned the house. You may think of that as no fun, but I had no mommy-duties as I cleaned. And I like a clean house. Then, at my leisure, I got all dressed up for no one but me. I took a biography and put Renee Olstead, Diana Krall, and Madeleine Peyroux in my pocket. I went for a walk through our whimsy downtown and went in stores that I wouldn't dare take my children. I never knew nor cared what time it was.

I made my way to the end of the little strip to a creperie I've been wanting to try. It was closed, but I can imagine how nice it would've been...

I guess I'll need another labor day.
