Adventures in Babysitting

My sister called me this afternoon and asked if I could babysit for the little boys at the last second tonight. I said why not. Especially since I was already on baseball duty out in D(unnellon)-town with Michael. So, mom and I drove hime out there and dropped him off. They were taking my car tonight (I thought I heard some funny noises), so I got to drive my favorite vehicle of all time...the Durango. I feel so powerful behind the wheel. Picked up the big boy and drove home. As we were pulling into the driveway, Drea and Chris pulled in behind us. I wish I had a video camera to record it. It was soooo cute watching Josiah watch Superpets and playing with Jordan in the bathtub. That kid loves to wash his hair! When you pour water over his head he laughs this little belly laugh that will make anyone giggle. It was a good Friday night in... tomorrow is boot camp with some of the girls from work. Then off to the mechanics for new tires and a oil change. Thrilling, huh?

Wednesday, February 20, 2008

I am at work. It's Wednesday night and there are about 5 other places I would rather be other than where I am right now...make that about a million. Frankly, most of them involve either my bed or a tropical location with either another bed or a hammock. I'm so blessedly tired I can hardly stand it. I ache...all over. My knees, my neck, my eyes, even my ears. I get to work tomorrow night too! I'm grumpy and just want to crawl somewhere and go to sleep and not have to deal with the things I'm dealing with. Denial is my middle name tonight.

What I will be dreaming of this afternoon...
Beaches in the Caribbean
Pina Coladas
Hammocks
Lying in the sand with my friends
Sleeping some more
Buying a fabulous new bag
Getting an awesome new haircut/hairdo
Someone to hug me

I think that summer needs to come soon
