Time to confess all with Glamazon--go on, it'll be good for you.
I confess:
- I'm sort of liking having Nick gone for hunting
- Oh, I miss him, but the break is good--right?
- I hate parent teacher conferences
- Hated them when I was a kid--what if I was bad (not that I ever was but still, it's like seeing a cop when you are driving--you immediately slow down and get all careful because you never know)
- Now I hate them because I still feel that I'm going to the principal's office--someone else is judging my kid. Does it reflect on me? Is he good? Is he smart? Or am I just a nutty, neurotic mom?
- I've washed the taunting towels and left them to sit in the dryer. That'll show those cheeky towels.
- I haven't been to the movies--like with overpriced popcorn and darkness--for like four years now.
- To be honest, I haven't missed it. I usually freeze my feet at the theater.
- Cheaper and more convenient to stay home and rent.
- I have no idea what to get Bruiser for Christmas. Turbo is no problem--some legos, some K'nex and he's good to go. Bruiser, now he more difficult--not quite ready for Thomas, and we still have all the Thomas stuff from his big brother--not quite ready for big boy toys. And I don't want to invest lots in stuff he won't use for very long.
- I think some Internet hunting is in order for the poor kid.
- It's complicated by the fact that his birthday is only one month after Christmas.
- And yes I realize that one's part my fault, part his--the kid was two weeks early.
Don't feel bad...I kind of enjoy it when T has something, too, because I like having the TV to myself and a little peace and quiet :-)
ReplyDeleteIt is always nice to have some alone time. "me" time I like to call it. After a couple days though I miss the hubby. :)
ReplyDeletetime apart is always a good thing...for a little while.
ReplyDelete4 yrs? really? i kinda love going to the movies. but i also love watching them at home on my sofa under a comfy blanket.
Im the opposite...I know what to get my youngest but at a loss for what to get my oldest! My youngest was born 2 days before Christmas...it makes it very hard to figure out things for both!
ReplyDeleteAbsence makes the heart grow fonder...or...how can I miss you if you won't go away? hahaha. Nothing wrong with it.
ReplyDeleteParent Teacher conferences are rough. I also have two kids with IEP's so that means I have more meetings, except the IEP meetings feel more like intervention!
When the hubby is away you can PLAY!
ReplyDelete:)))
Hope you have a restful weekend!
And yes, absence does make the heart grow fonder!
I saw 'Salt' in the theaters, but only cuz my Midget pitched a total fit and made me go. I hate the theater. Nine times out of ten I fall asleep, the chairs are uncomfortable and kill my back, and everything is over priced.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your break!
I haven't been to the movies in a long time either. The price of snacks is outrageous and I'd much rather sit in my PJs in my living room and watch a movie these days.
ReplyDeleteUggghhh I am having the same issue with Christmas. I've got one with a brithday 2 weeks before & one with a birthday 2 weeks after. TOTALLY SUCKS!
