but it is really driving me totally crazy!! The movers have moved just about everything out of the house. We have one room that still has a couple of pieces of furniture left in it. They are currently out in my dh's workshop packing up his tools.

I absolutely cannot remember a time when I didn't need to do laundry, cook, clean, or do SOMETHING. I mean, I can only sit in front of the computer for so long without going bonkers. (No offense to you wonderfully entertaining women! :D)

Golly, I will not complain of being overwhelmed with stuff I need to do ever again. I much prefer having a zillion things I need to be doing over having absolutely nothing to do. :)

Can you go download yourself a book or audiobook and enjoy that while you have some free time? I'll admit that I'm jealous--I've had DD5 in my face all day, and I've spent the whole day in the kitchen. Stupid home cooking! :p

LOL.....I have had to play referee with my kids that are also incredibly bored and are driving eachother crazy, too! ;)

I was so bored earlier that I gave the dog a bath! My 9 yod is reading over my shoulder and said "mom, that was pretty sad!"

We are always so busy and I am a constant multi-tasker. I do think it is wonderful that my kids aren't addicted to tv....they got bored after watching tv for a couple of hours and then turned it off. :) (though I think I would have preferred the tv on over the feet fights they decided to have!)

It won't be long until you're busy multi-tasking again. How about playing with your kids, reading a good book, going for a walk (with your kids, perhaps.)

I'm with you. My family left on vacation yesterday, and I don't leave for my retreat until tomorrow. Needless to say, I'm spending a lot of time on the boards!
