School doesn't start for Zoe until Thursday and camp ended last Friday. This means that I had to cover for two work days. I'm incredibly busy (as previously reported) so couldn't take the time off. My mother-in-law graciously stepped up and I dropped Zoe off there this morning. She's staying with her until tomorrow. I'll pick her up about 4 ish so we can get home, pack her backpack, have dinner, get bathed, and lay out our clothes for the first day of school.
I'm fairly certain we won't be late. On Thursday at least. We have a dismal on-time record for arrival to school.
It wasn't until about 4 this afternoon that I realized that I was going to be both husband and child free tonight. Woo hoo! For the whole night. How weird is that?
What's a girl to do?
I suppose I could have gone to the movies, or made some last minute calls for dinner plans, but none of it sounded appealing.
I did try to do some shopping after work, but made a poor store choice and found absolutely nothing, not even shoes. I ordered in Chinese. (And how pathetic is it that when I placed my delivery order the guy recognized my voice and address and was surprised that I'd ordered so little and felt compelled to comment on it?) I tidied the house a bit. I gave my pets some attention. I played some cribbage (my addiction), and now I'm writing this boring entry about how I wasted a completely good night alone, doing nothing.
I'm floundering I tell you.

And you are so well spoken here I am sure we would have hit it off. Maybe we can meet up another time when you have the time to yourself...My best to you!
