Oh Cinderella

Oh Cinderella I feel your pain. I have already found my prince but some days I feel like a servant in my own home. Here it is the first day of Autumn, one of my favorite days of the year and I am too tired to enjoy it. It is a Tuesday, my "day off" from work and this is how I spent it.

vacuum
wash rugs

After that I called it a day. I joined my little one on the couch with my knitting and we watched Enchanted. I like the ending of this fairy tale better than Cinderella. Sometimes you can't wait for someone to save you, you just have to put your feet up and take care of yourself.
