Yes, today is the formerly know Thursday, which is now know in my world as Pre-Friday! One of my friends has had a particularly crappy week and has been wishing for Friday to get here all week. She made a declaration that Thursday would now be considered "Pre-Friday". I love it! I am jumping on board and hoping that it will catch on.
Thursday from September to May have been my favorite day since I discovered Mom's Day Out. I love being able to drop my kids, or child at this point, off for five glorious hours of freedom. Of course, I took on another babysitting gig and he is now enjoying the peace and quiet with me. We actually just got done playing a round of peek-a-boo. Now he is crawling around playing with random toys and books he finds. When I am done here, we will sing his favorite song, "The Grand Old Duke of York".
Any who, I don't have much to say today so it's going to be random thoughts from me. I will start with some funny things Sarah has said to me over the past couple of days.
Yesterday we ran a couple of errands and when we got home I sat my keys on the island. Sarah sighed, grabbed the keys and put them in the junk drawer while telling me I need to put them away so I don't lose them. Really? My three year thinks I am irresponsible? Perhaps she has noticed that every other day I am ranting about not being able to find those very keys! Also I must say that I love that child because whenever I am unknowingly in her way, she'll say, "Move your little butt Mom!". I haven't detected any sarcasm in her voice. May be she is mocking me? I couldn't say for sure but what I do know is my butt is not little! Hence, why I love her.
Scott is getting ready to go on a hunting trip to South Dakota. Doesn't that sound like fun? Driving a million miles to hunt Pheasant! WOOHOO! Personally, I think it's dumb and a waste of money but he thinks it's stupid for me to drive 10 hours to hang out on the beach for 3 days. We're even! However, I am excited about him going. Why? Calm down, I am about to tell you. For one thing, I love having the bed all to myself. I can sleep smack dab in the middle of the bed, all night, every night! Another thing, I will have complete control of the television when the kids aren't around. Okay, I know, I know...I said, "When the kids aren't around". I don't know why I let them rule the main t.v. when we have two other fully operational t.v.'s in the house, I just do. Lastly, for 16 years of our marriage Scott was in the National Guard. He was gone one weekend a month, two weeks a year, not to mention various deployments for extended periods of time. I miss a little bit of freedom. Which is not to say that I don't have a lot of that now but it's just different. Don't judge me!
Oh and on a more exciting note, I am going out Saturday night with my sister and some friends to a place called Axis. Axis is apparently a gay bar in the Short North. How do I know this? Why am I going? Well, I know this because my sister and I recently discovered we have a cousin who doubles as a drag queen on the weekends. I say "discovered" because we didn't even know he existed until recently - our Dad's side of the family is large. For this reason, we don't know a lot of our extended family. That is until Facebook! So my sister made contact with him and found out he lived right here in Columbus! There was a video of him doing a "show" and Tammy found out when his next performance was and there you have it. We are going to meet him and see the show. I am excited!
That's all I got....boring stuff, I know!
Sincerely,
The Queen of Insanity
I love having the bed to myself....I often cross my fingers in hope that Jim will fall asleep in his chair and forget to come to bed. LOL
