Work vs Reward

Last night, I had finished everything on my "To Do" list and had the kitchen cleaned up so I asked Hubby for some sim time. From 7:30pm till 10pm, I decorated a "casino". I would have spent longer but I was tired from cutting all that grass.Then I spent another 30 minutes dressing Lizzy and finding the perfect shot.

By now, Hubby is hovering and making wise cracks about "horsey-girl". So I snap the pic I want and he says, "That's it?" This prompts a debate about work vs reward. To tell the truth, his points are valid but I still enjoy the creative process anyway.

I posted the pic on my modeling blog here. It's titled "Poker Face".

(After posting that I realized I haven't started one for AAM. *adds to To Do list*)

I have already written one article for Teen Sensation, I hope to have the pictures done today so I can email it to Beech. Then I will just have the one article and pics left. *sigh* I didn't get around to Lacey yesterday and today is already pretty full. So, hopefully I can update SOMETIME this week. I had the greatest idea pop up for how to finish up her story while I was laying in bed last night trying to fall asleep. 

It's .... 10:15am right now. I have made beds, picked up dirty clothes, fed four kids powdered donuts, cleaned up said donuts from every available surface, cleaned breakfast dishes (cups basically), gotten kids dressed, diapers changed, teeth brushed, helped my two oldest with Summer Bridge worksheets, vacuumed all carpeting in house, and drank my two cups of coffee. Now, all that's left is simmy stuff and to clean the dreaded oven. *shivers*
