Wednesday we had basketball with Jack. I pick them up from school and we go right to the Park District. Jack does his basketball thing and Sal and I sit in the bleachers and read or do whatever. This time I brought her people (Fisher Price Little People). She got them all out, lined them up and looked at me and said "You didn't bring Robert?" Stunned (and not knowing who the heck Robert was) I said "Well, no, I just grabbed some and put them in a bag."
"That's ok" she said in a voice tone that was in a sense saying 'I've lived with your lack of performance this long - I can keep going'. :-) It was so funny.
We (my *wonderful* children and myself) then spent 2 days together. Because of the cold school was cancelled. Ugghhh. How the heck to stay at home mothers do it??? Times like this make me really appreciate teachers.
Lon and I trucked out to Minooka on Saturday for a "Diva Day" (crop from 10-10) It was FANTASTIC!!! We had the best time. We've gone often enough now that we know most of the women by name and the owners are good friends now, too. It was a day that was MUCH needed for both of us.
We hadn't seen each other since before Christmas so we had a LOT to talk about.
:-) We got a lot accomplished too. I got all my cards made and then some and she got like 21 pages done.
It was hell going back to work today. Not that I didn't' want to go - LOVE getting away. But when you've been gone for a couple of days things kind of pile up and you feel a little bit overwhelmed.
I guess it's nice to have job security. :-)
