Let's see. I needed gas. (Like I was on fumes needed gas.) I had to get the oil changed (okay, and I hate this job because I totally believe it's a man's job as I'm ALWAYS the only woman in the place) then, I have to grocery shop because my kids are giving me that look. We've been out of chips/ice cream for three full days. Which is somewhere between public speaking and death on their scale of pain.
Tonight is Back to School night. Three kids, 18 classes, you do the math and see if that is remotely possible? It's not. Saturday is Adam Ant. Saturday is Adam Ant! San Diego, my best high school friend, and Adam Ant. I can endure the oil change...and the groceries, but I'm sort of over being a housewife. Is this what they call a midlife crisis? I threatened Elle yesterday in Nordstroms that I was going to try on the sparkly, bangle shorts to wear to Adam Ant. She said even though she wasn't going to be there, the idea gave her nightmares.
I think I need me some Darcy...
im 4 hours away from spending the next 3 weeks with my grandparents...enough said!

Oh but enjoy. They can baby you and it's okay to be a child. Enjoy ever Lawrence Welk moment. One day, they won't be here. (Not to be a downer, but it's true!)

That's the worst. My Nana always thought I was my mother in the end. (You know how they don't lose long-term memory?) It was so hard to go see her because she just stared at me like a total stranger. When her husband of 60 years died, she asked, "What happened to that nice man? "
Devastating disease.

Out of ice cream, that is 911 emergency right there lol.
Why does it always seem that the week before you get to do something cool is the week that seems to drag by. On the flip side at least you can show restraint with the shorts. If it were me I would thrown on the shorts, even though sparkly bangle shorts and me would scar a child for life :)
