Gumption - Lost and Found

Remember that lost gumption? That sneaky thing took the first flight outta town during the holidays while I wasn't looking and ended up on the other side of the world, literally. Luckily, I've got friends all over this wide world and one of my best ever, Chels, found it there in Tassie and is Air Mailing it back to me ASAP.

Don't believe me? Check out her blog - it's really there. I hear she's been getting all sorts of wonderful things done with it - her bathrooms are sparkling, you could eat off her floors and all the girlie's artwork is off the walls. I guess this explains why my house has been such a mess for the past month too.


Unfortunately, it didn't take this squirt with it when it went gallivanting off across the globe. And he's not picking up the slack my gumption left either.


And it needs to come back fast, cause this one's starting to take advantage of my lackadaisical attitude. He's moving straight from cute toddler to naughty, defiant 2 year old. He's just 6 months early. Chels, does it take 6 months to get a package all the way from Tasmania?


In the meantime, I'll just lay here on the couch, watch the kids play the Wii and jump up and look productive only when John comes in the door. Maybe my package will conveniently get lost in the ocean so I can have a good excuse for doing nothin.
