Today has been crazy. Crazy! I'll give a brief recap, and then I am going to have a glass of wine and call it a day.
Last night the kids' youth group had a babysitting fundraiser, and Paige went home with a friend and spent the night. I picked Paige up at 9:30, put gas in the van because it was running on fumes, and ran Clay to McDonald's for a Taekwondo carwash fundraiser.
Then Paige and I went to run some errands before picking Clay up and taking him to Panera's for an AP exam review session for his AP Human Geography class. (As an aside, I have to mention how awesome this teacher is, especially since I have written so much about the heinous teacher from Hell so much.) While he was there reviewing, Paige and I ran more errands at Target
and then went back to Panera to (finally) have lunch and wait for Clay to finish.
While we waited, Paige indulged in a little light reading for the research paper she is working on. She shared this little tidbit with me as I was eating my sandwich...
"Eeww...Mom, did you know that they used to take dried mummy parts and use them as drugs?"
(cough, cough, gag)
"Umm, no I didn't."
"Gross, huh?"
Yes. And thanks for sharing, honey!
Clay finished up around 3:30, we gave one of his friends a ride home and then - you'd THINK we'd be finished, wouldn't you?
Ha!
Nope. We ran home to let our poor, long-suffering Lucy out, and then I took Clay over to mow the lawn at my uncle's house. He has a business arrangement to mow his lawn every week. Which means I have to run him over there.
Sigh.
Did I mention that the temperature was 92 degrees today?
May I just point out that our lawn has yet to be mowed - he is doing that in the morning!!
Anyway...I'm too tired to think of anything else to say. I'm going to have a glass of this:
1. Yes, I know that the picture is sideways. I'm too tired to go back and switch it. Turn your head sideways.
2. Mad Housewife wine? You KNOW I had to get that!
3. I am SO glad I did.
