Unsupervised Dad

This is one of those weeks when everyone is out of the house, leaving me completely unsupervised! Bwa ha ha ha!

While the reality of the situation is that my week's schedule leaves me with little flexibility, I still dream of the crazy things I could do, while unsupervised.  Now, with any luck, this list will be completely different than previous "unsupervised" lists were...because I've already DONE all of those things, of course!   Without further delay, here are some ways I could spend my time this week:

1. Convert the girls' room into a temporary skateboard park.
2. 'Round the clock music listening at the proper sound level! (OK, this one I'm actually doing)
3. Watch "Steel Magnolias" without someone else hogging the Kleenex box.
4. Build a better mousetrap.
5. Finally take those Christmas lights down!
6. Figure out what all these unattached power supplies belong to and why they haven't been missed up to now!
7. Continue work on my fully functional light-saber. I'm sure I'm close!
8. Due to advice from legal council, I can't tell you exactly what I'm going to be doing, but let me just say it involves a potato cannon, and marshmallows in bulk.
9. Learn how to do back handsprings...or maybe just a front roll.
10. READ A BOOK!  I currently have one from the library I've renewed many times, and probably owe the max fee on, as well.  I really thought I'd have time to read it!

BTW, I'm just kidding about the Christmas lights. I'm not one of those people.

One of my many talents that is now completely useless (until I am cornered in a back alley by a Ninja Turtle)

call me if you need help with the skate park...your family knows that your wii will take care of you while they are gone, they don't worry about you or what you will be doing with a little alone time----they know what wii, I mean what you will be doing.

I'm totally with you on the read a book one. That's one none of us do often enough. The skate park idea, I like it. Do you do other's houses as well? My downstairs room needs a remodel.
