Stuff is still happening!
2 nights ago, I woke up twice to sounds in the kitchen. The following morning, I walked into the kitchen and saw the sink just as I had left it before I went to sleep - pristine! I checked the dishwasher and there was nothing “new” in there!
Did I dream it all?
When I got back from work yesterday, I was looking for leftovers for dinner. Then, I saw a couple of empty containers. Still, I didn’t put two and two together. When Hans got home, I asked him why he would put back empty containers in the fridge.
“Mom, the sink was so clean. I didn’t want to fill it with dirty dishes.”
This morning, I found the empty milk carton in the fridge.
This morning, TDSB also declared a Snow Day. Hans was praying for it. He had 2 tests today, and a university application deadline. His wish came true.
Usually, I leave home by 7 am and Hans’ alarm is set for 7:30 am. So, I waited outside his room for the alarm to go off; knocked on his door to tell him to go back to sleep. As I opened the door, Hans received the news with a happy “seriously?”. Then, he gets out of bed to walk up to a bookshelf and turn the alarm off on the clock that was perched up there. After that, he walks back to his bed to turn the alarm off on his phone and goes back to bed.
Ah! That’s how he manages to wake up!
Hans continues to make me smile. I am very happy to be on whatever planet he is on … with dirty dishes and all!
