girls just wanna eat and sleep
By heather | April 16, 2010
So it’s a girls’ weekend around here. This weekend is, apparently, the start of fishin’ season in Pennsylvania. I’ve run this factoid by a few of my Philly friends and gotten blank stares in response, but Brett is from them parts that actually know these dates and also get a day off of school at the start of huntin’ season. So fishin’ season is also cause celebre. (Note ironic use of term…)
Today I picked Em up from daycare at lunch, skivving off work for most of the afternoon for an early dive into fun. Which means she took a three hour nap, while I puttered around fretting about various work and life-related things, getting it out of my system like I do every Friday. When she woke up we went to early dinner, then to Rita’s for Italian Ice where we ran into some old friends, then came back home just in time for a bath and bed.
As I look ahead to the weekend, most of it is centered around eating and sleeping, which is totally how it should be. I’m debating taking a boot camp class on Sunday morning, debating partly because I’m a little scared of the guy that teaches it but also because I’m a lot scared of the diseased hellions running around the gym daycare. We’ll have to see about that one. Maybe we could go for pancakes instead.
In other great news, the child at daycare that was the cause of so many angst-y posts in the past year has been given the boot. Hooray! Next week is his last week. There are some mornings when I drop off the kids that this other child is yelling and behaving so badly that I can’t stand to be around him for 10 minutes, so I don’t know how this has lasted as long as it did. I’m just thankful that he’ll soon be somewhere else.
Time for me to go watch my new obsession…Cake Boss. Happy weekend!

Eating and sleeping are two of my favorite activities. (I don’t usually mix the two, though, as that can be very messy.)
I’m so glad the hellion is outta there. Woohoo!
