Don’t ya just love the title!?! I was making waffles the other morning, and was on the laptop doing some work. But with making the waffles I had to stay close to the waffle maker. So to combine both projects I brought the laptop in the kitchen and continued to look up insurance quotes and make the waffles. My hubby thought I had lost it for sure! But hey, I had a busy morning planned and needed to finish my work first! Someone needs to do the leg work on the insurance, as I can see the two men dragging their feet until the last possible second and making me worry every step of the way!
