It’s Tuesday. Time for coffee.
I’ll take mine black and strong. I need it after the loooooong weekend I had. Seriously, I’m glad to be at work because it’s quiet here and no one is yelling “mommy” all the time.
It’s weird because certain days when the kids yell “mommy” my heart melts…then other days it makes me want to scream. Hmmmm. There might be a separate blog post percolating there.
Well, if we were meeting for coffee today, I’d show up wearing this T-shirt.

It says “Anything Boys Can Do Girls Can Do Better.”

Thank you B2 for buying such a ROCKIN’ T at the Chicago Comic Con. One of these days the boys and I will attend this testosterone fest and see what all the fuss is about.
B2 was gone from Thursday through Sunday…the longest time EVER! He was actually supposed to leave Wednesday, but I frantically called him Wednesday night because as soon as E walked in the door from school he threw up. Ugh… Not only that but as I was going to call B2 (to get him to turn around and come home) and get a bucket, G decided to crawl through the disgusting mess. Another Ugh…So I made E sit in an empty tub covered in yuck, while I cleaned G and mopped the floor.
Five minutes after everything was done. B2 came in the front door. Triple Ugh…
I appreciate him giving up his extra day considering the rest of the night was uneventful.
E went to school on Thursday, but they called saying he had an outrageous temp and needed to be picked up. Needless to say, he had to stay home on Friday. (mandatory policy…you have sign a paper and everything.). So, I got a “vacation” day on Friday.
We watched movies and spent a lazy day at home, and I was surprised by these
If we were really meeting for coffee today, I’d ask how you like my newly painted front door. Yes, because every mom who is home alone with two kids during a three day weekend needs a DIY project to add more insanity to the mix. (Blog post coming tomorrow on this).
Overall, by Sunday I was wiped (oh and I didn’t even mention the macaroni incident…check the blog on Thursday). So, I had every intention of hiring a sitter and spending a nice evening going to dinner and movie with a friend, but B2 suprised me and came back early, so we didn’t need to spend money on a sitter and when I got home at 9 p.m. everyone was snug in bed. Ahhhhh…
