Why do people complain about their husbands working late? I am in seventh heaven right now. I haven't heard a 'where's my remote?' or a 'who made this mess?' all night. Life is much calmer without the 'better half' around that's for sure. I wish I could say I'm taking this quiet time to get caught up with everything that needs to be done but unless sitting on your ass in front of a computer screen all night is on the list I guess I'd have to say no. The kids went straight from adorably cute to downright annoying in one fail swoop. Who knows, maybe it was the rain or maybe I'm just a bitch. I've always been told I'm moody - only by people without an ounce of emotion in their entire bodies - but still it may be just me! I have one child who is just not happy unless he is tormenting another. Hmmm, I wonder where he could have gotten that from? I have another who thinks Mr. Tormentor gets away with everything under the sun, which he probably does. A third who thinks they are both the devil in disguise and lets me know that frequently with her blood curdling screams because of a look or a gesture from one of the 'devils'. A fourth who will just start crying no matter who is bothering him and then there's Baby Princess who likes to stir it up with whomever is nearby. Oh, don't ya just love Spring Break? I'm sure this too shall pass. Who knows, my sisters and I picked the crap out of each other when we were kids and we still talk - sometimes. Life is a series of ups and downs and turnarounds. Hopefully I can end up facing the right direction.
After a full day of being royal pains in my ass my wonderful children suggested we go out to dinner. Normally I would have been like 'are you kidding?' Why reward bad behavior with a night out? I should say that's probably what my husband would say. I think they understood that I needed to relax as much as they wanted to eat good food. So off we went we had a wonderful time and I'm thinking - sometimes children do know best!
