Mundane Monday
It's gross and dreary out, and it seems like the weekend was waaay too short, and here we are back at a Mundane Monday. Days like today suck. It's too cold and drizzly to play outside, and it's dark and dreary inside, so all the lights have to be on. I could clean out a closet, or dust, or something somewhat constructive like that, but all I want to do is eat chocolate chip cookies and watch tv with the kiddo.
Money is tight right now, so joining an activity like toddler time at the YMCA is out, so I'm brainstorming to figure out ways to have fun as the long days of winter draw near. The basement is still out of commission, so it's making it much harder. I'm thinking we may make sock puppets today and build a stage out of a box. Or paint. But then what do we do tomorrow?
I borrowed a few toddler activity books to get my brain in gear, but it's hard to think when all I want to do is curl up on the couch and hibernate. It's just that kind of day.
When is it spring again???? Sigh.

I'm telling you, besides the Major Meltdown Incident, the library is a great place. Check when they have craft times, etc. and you're good to go. He loves it there and basically entertains himself. Bring a mag or a book (or duh, they have some there!) and chill on the couch while he plays with that bead thing. Then he plays with the puzzles, then goes and plays in the wooden house. Then he usually insists on taking a walking tour of the dowstairs. Good for getting out energy.
Goldmine. Sweet sweet Palatine Library.
