Top five things to do during my kids' nap time
disclaimer: my preschoolers-not my actual kids. I do believe this may have turned me off to wanting children EVER!
5.) Homework: Silly I know-but it tends to be a good hour and a half of quiet work time. Especially good for the amount of busy work I have this quarter. It is very good time to do my Learning Self Eval for the week or write my questions for class the next day. I appreciate this homework time because at least there is usually a decent story-on-tape playing or some nice homeworking-type music.
4.) Pretending to be doing homework. This is one of my favorite things to do because it makes me not have to do work things or converse with my boss on too much of a personal level. Hence I love pretending to be doing homework even when I am totally not.
3.) On-Line shopping. Maybe a faux pas to be doing at work but I am over it. I have bought cloth pads (really awesome ones), acne meds, a couple of clothing items-just really great things that shouldn't be done at work-but my work has no internet filter so-HAH!
2.) Reading children's books. We have a bunch of really great Eric Carle books (Hungry Caterpiller, Brown Bear Brown Bear etc...) and it allows me time to catch up on my children's lit and relive my childhood memories. I also love Disney storyteller tapes, they are awesome stories I once had as a child but got lost somewhere along the way. Now I get to listen to all of them as much as I want!
1.) Post top-five lists. I know I know I should not revel in this fact but I do really enjoy that I get some time to Blog for myself during nap time otherwise I might never ever have a chance.
