Romancing the Stone

Tommy is crying in his swing rather than sleeping as he should be. Laundry is still sitting by the basement door. The floors (my t0-do item for yesterday) are still not mopped. A pile of ironing as tall as Patrick continues to grow on our guest room bed (because I can never fetch the clothes in a timely manner when I hear the dryer stop). None of this matters though, because I am on my way to shower and shave my legs-we were just offered up date night by Tom's mom! What shall we do?? Both of us are sadly too tired to sit in a dark theater right now, so it looks like dinner out. Carving out time for husband/wife is long overdue in this house between all the yard work, baby and work.

On a sad note, our family bids a fond farewell for the summer to our friends and next door neighbors- they depart for the beach this evening and we won't see them until close to Labor Day. Who will share in my daily coffee binges now? Safe journeys and watch out for the jellyfish.
