Non-Post

There are days when blog post ideas race through my brain at light speed and, on good days, if I'm lucky, I'm able to capture a few before the thoughts are lost forever.

And there are days, like today, when I want to post something but have nothing to say. I sit here with sun streaming through my window, a hot cup of coffee six inches away and a peaceful home and yet I have...nothing. The blogging stars, so to speak, are perfectly aligned, and yet the most critical component, a good idea, is utterly lacking. Shouldn't the serenity, the coffee and the sun be enough? I sort of hoped it might.

Alas, all I can think of is the trip to Trader Joe's I have to make this morning. And the casserole I have to make for our potluck at church this evening. And the pile of laundry in my basement. None of those things are interesting or inspirational.

I personally find laundry to be a fascinating topic. Will we have matching socks tomorrow???? Will there be clean undershirts???? Stay tuned. (the suspense is killing you isn't it?)

Ah Cait, such is the life of a stay at home mom, where dinner ideas and laundry ARE interesting topics!

So tell us about Trader Joes!

Superdad, you're right. The matching socks thing is as intense as anything when it's time to go and you can't find a matching pair!

I can't decide if I am signing my real name or blog. Blog.

Trader Joe's is ALWAYS a postable experience.

Well I have two navy blue socks that both match the suit I am in today. They do not, however, match each other. The patterns are nearly identical. I hope that I am the only person who will be close enough to my ankles to notice. :)
