Okay ...
It's Friday night. And everyone is asleep.
I'm not used to this. Usually, I'm the first one passed out on the couch. At 8:30pm.
And I know what you all are thinking ... "Lay Off The Drink!"
But I tried that ... and that's not it.
Seriously.
I did that. And that's NOT IT.
So anyway.
Here I am.
At 10:30pm on a Friday Night.
I can remember back when this was such an exciting time of day. A time when I haven't even left the house yet for the evening ... and there was such a long night ahead. Full of dancing. And drinking. And socializing. And flirting with boys.
All that bull crap that doesn't really matter ... (I can say that since I've got Big Daddy upstairs, fully content with ME. Or at least I think he is.)
Now, many years later and what seems like another life entirely, I have kissed 4 sleepy heads, 3 of which are already asleep. Packed the cooler minus ice for the baseball tournament tomorrow (local), fished Jake's nut cup out from behind the washer. Long story, a whole other post that I'll threaten him with ... unless he SWINGS THE BAT TOMORROW! (Good-bye cash. Hello Blackmail.), and set out everyone's clothes for the easiest transition tomorrow morning from the bed ... to the clothes ... to the breakfast table ... to the car ... (ooops, to the bathroom first) ... to the baseball fields.
I think I have it under control.
Now on to Season One, Episode One of Ugly Betty.
Yeah, I'm the only person is the U. S. of A. that has never seen "Ugly Betty" !!
Hello? I've got four kids.
I don't get out much.
Or the TV doesn't get turned on much.
Or something like that ...
