Home Alone

So, somehow, we have no kids today.  They are both off with the grandparents (who for some reason just love to take them off our hands :)).  Yesterday, as we were driving to meet my dad, Eric and I couldn't decide what to do today.  What do we do with no kids?  So, as of 12:30 today, I have:
- run 7 miles
- cleaned out the secretary desk, drilled a hole in it, and mounted all of the charging plugs to get them out of signt
- organized and cleaned the attic
After lunch, I will:
- take a shower
- grocery shop
- pick up a slide
- shop for some stuff for the kids
So, I'm wondering, is it really less work when the kids are gone?  Why can't I just relax?!


By the way, if the kids were here, this is what we would be doing instead of everything above!
