working

I still work one day a week at my former life job. It's nice to get out of the house and just do some simple tasks. If anyone would've told me that one day my job would be the getaway, I'd of for sure chuckled. It's kind of amazing how busy a stay at home mommy can be.
I wrote about how Awesome Dad is on a raw food diet and that I am not. I eat some of each of the dished I create for him, but I have to have cooked food too. After just a few days of doing this I realize we have a problem. I can't add raw food chef to my repetoire right now. Awesome Dad is going to have to start fixing a lot of his meals. Like probably half. I feel bad telling him that. He is very appreciative of my cooking and looks kind of freaked out about having to figure out a lot of this on his own. It was my suggestion that he try the raw food thing and I was really excited at first. But my excitement waned as the reality of uncooking and cooking set in.
Basically, I'm going to have to get even more organized. I need to figure out what to make and when and how much stuff we need for all of those meals. Awesome Dad asked if we could prepare dinner together tonight. I told him that we could but I need some more flax seeds. He agreed to pick some up.
I guess the other thing I'm struggling with in my quest to be awesome is how to keep the house organized. When I work, Dad focuses all of his attention on Joaquin, which is great. After Joaquin goes to bed, Dad treats himself to some uninterrupted internet time, maybe some football, and a snack. When I get home he is sleepy but still on the couch, smiling and warm. Do you see where I might be going with this? Toys strewn all about the floor, dishes in the sink, laundry washed and dried but lying crumpled in baskets...all the little things that one must stay on top of just ignored. I usually just take off my jacket and dig in, but last night I didn't, and that has made today harder.
