And Done

Well, today was finally my last. It is kind of like a celebrity pregnancy; I talked about it so much for so long that seemed like my two week notice has taken two months. I amass to leave my friends, but really excited about moving on before I really did lose my mind because I think that I was getting there.

This is also my wedding anniversary weekend and I am sad to say that we have no plans. We are just too overextended doing things for others that we have not had time for ourselves. Mallow being the good friend that she is has taken the Suga Booga and may come tomorrow for LoLo, but right now it is just me, Husband, LoLo sitting in the house watching reruns of Good Times. Husband is finishing his work and I am laying here with my feet up.

I would normally be really upset about this. Holidays, birthdays, annniversaries are all really important to me, but we have both been really caught up in other stuff that all we want to do to celebrate is NOTHING- glorious nothing!

We were looking forward to nothing, but our babysitter, who is normally very reliable has chosen this week to be out of pocket and my mother has pulled the tired old lady card. Finally, my super responsible (insert extreme amounts of sarcasm) seems to have either not paid her phone bill and gotten disconnected or changed her number for the eight hundreth time (most likely in search of a better deal) and did not think it important enough to update me. (please expect a post in a week or two about how she called crying/yelling that I haven't called and don't care about if she is alive or dead.) This leaves LoLo at home with us. That is fine by him because he has our full attention. It does, however, mean that there will be no pretending that we are young and free this weekend.

It may sound like this weekend will be a bust, but I still have hope. 1) I hope Mallow does decide to come get the LoLo. 2) I hope the babysitter is available tomorrow. 3) I plan to have a good time even if things stay the way they are because taking care of one 4 year old is really not that bad and how things stand currently that is all we have.

It is like husband says, we don't have 3 or more because we can't let them outnumber us; at two we are even, but with one we are finally back at having the advantage.

That is worth celebrating.
