i sort of wasted a day

i took off work today. i really was spent from the week out of town.

i got up, got the kids off to school and then blissfully went back to bed and slept like a rock until noon. i was out cold. then i dozed off and on until about 2pm.

i got up, cleaned a little (things got a tad bit out of hand this time around. typically the hubs is like superman--taking care of the kids, cleaning the house, etc. but this trip things fell a part a bit) picked the kids up from afterschool care and stopped by the grocery store. we're having spaghetti for dinner. for some reason i've been jonsing for it.

the boy is rambling around with nothing to do. he can't watch tv. apparently there was an incident this week. so bad that the teacher called the hubs. the boy does not know how to keep his mouth shut. he talks out of turn all the time. he talks when he's not supposed to, etc. so after that incident the hubs told him if he had to flip his card (three flips gets the phone call i think) then he'd lose a night of tv. so, no tv for the boy tonight.

can we talk about gas? here on the east coast, particularly nc, sc, ga and fla we're getting screwed w/ the gas because they've shut down the colonial pipeline thanks to the hurricanes. the wholesale cost is above $4 and today at the two stations near our house people were lined up for $3.66 and $3.79. i was in line in one and the station ran out of gas. hmph.

hopefully i'll get back up to speed and write something a little more exciting than this post : ) zzzzzzzzzzzz and over the weekend i hope to catch up on all of your blogs as well.
