The Day After

My son and I have been slogging around all day, worn out from a day of food and clean-up. We've both been eating all day long, doing our best to empty the frige of leftovers. The latter may be the reason for our lack of energy; most of what's left -- other than the turkey -- is carby food. We had three desserts and even though I sent a lot of everything home with my other son and his girlfriend, there is so much tempting stuff left, the kinds of food that I don't usually have in the house. I suppose I could use more restraint. I just want to take a nap.

We awoke this morning with the best intentions; we planned to get some yard work done and I was going to do some grading and prep for Monday's classes. But I still have two days, and he will be here for another month. We'll have plenty of time to get things done. Oh, golly. I really do need to lie down.
