I know I should probably feel guilty for saying this but..."WAHOO!!" My kids are gone. Dad took them up to Grandma tonight because there are State Playoff Games tomorrow that he wants to go to and I'm working a day shift here. His only option was Grandma (thank you, Grandma!) and thankfully, he decided to leave tonight instead of early tomorrow morning. Again..."WAHOO!!"
I've been working on this stupid blog all day so I decided to take this opportunity to add to my postings! Lucky for all of you.
I always feel guilty when I know I'm going to be leaving my kids for a couple of days. But when the kids are leaving me, the guilt seems to go with it. Explain that! I'm not sure why, but I don't want to dig too deep because I want to be able to enjoy it. They will only be gone until tomorrow, therefore tonight will be my only opportunity at freedom.
What have I got planned? Couple of chick-flicks and a tub of ice cream? Gourmet dinner for one? Sappy love story novel while I'm curled up next to the fire?
No, NO and HECK NO! You would think that with this freedom I would do something I enjoy. But, alas...there is laundry to finish, floors to sweep, a dishwasher to unload, a shower to take (yep, probably ought to get at least one of those in today!). And sadly, doing any of these things "kidless" is almost as great a luxury as anything else would be. Even eating my "gourmet" dinner of Easy Mac with hotdogs is bliss when I can do it ALONE!
And as nice as it is to be able to post on this blog alone, I really ought to get busy! Duty calls!
