For today’s winner…. February 24, 2008
Posted by spacemom in : Current Affairs , add a commentI guess that would be… ME? oh, thank you! Thank you very much!
Today, I experienced something I had not even contemplated. 2 free hours! Yes, 2 CHILD FREE HOURS! I took Soleil to a clay shop where she painted a piggy bank for her sister (aside, is this normal for a 5 year old to constantly make things for her sister? It seems so sweet!) and I painted a tzedakah (charity) box for our family. Then we packed off for the sudden birthday party. When I got there, I ran into another mom that I knew. She was leaving? Whoa….? I asked her "Is this a drop off party?" She said she had the other two kids (she’s divorced) so she had to drop off. When I got in, I introduced myself to J’s mom and apologized AGAIN for RSVping so late and then asked "Do you want me to stay?" And she said it was up to me. I asked Soleil and she said "I’m fine, you can go now, Mom"
So I DID! I left! And I uncluttered the newly rearranged office! Whoohoo!!!
In other news, I was reading the Boston Globe magazine this morning. A woman was pointing out that an article from last week about baby sitter stealing that HER teens needed sitting jobs. So I noticed she was in the next town over and I googled her number. I called her and on Friday, (if there’s no basketball game), her daughters are coming over to babysit.
Is that surreal or what?
