Friday...

So, as you can see in my previous post... I had all day Friday to myself, and wasn't sure how to use such a gift. Turns out, didn't really need a plan...

Kids and I got up a little late (I had wanted them to sleep in and catch up a bit with their sleep). They had breakfast, worked on Father's Day presents for Joe, and around 10 a.m. I decided it was time to take them to Kids Club. Colin was less than happy about going, but needless to say we got there and I dropped them off.

I hit a couple of stores. Been on the quest for the perfect summer purse... finally found one (it is orange... may not look like it, but it is orange- I have an 'orange' thing here lately. Bought Joe some vacation clothes as well...
Met Joe for a wonderful lunch- YC's- so yummy. It was nice to eat out and really have a chance to talk without dealing with what Colin was going to eat, whether or not Colin was going to eat, what Julia was doing, etc. etc. We talked for a long time about a variety of topics (including how to add a counter to this blog) and then I headed off to the grocery store. There is a big Trader Joe's on that side of town, so I decided to go there. I was about half way through when my phone rang. It was Kids Club. They 'suspected' that Julia had pink eye and I had to pick her up. Look at Julia.. does it look to you like she has pink eye?? (note the wonderful expression on her face...)
Needless to say, my day was quickly absorbed into Julia and Colin... which actually turned about to be a fair amount of fun. However, not the day 'alone' I had been thinking about. I guess that's what I get for not KNOWING what to do with my day. :)
