M.E. trashed the living room while I cleaned the kitchen. I thought I had her safely being babysat by the teevee. She was so quiet about it that I didn't have a clue. I'd ask her brother to watch her but he SUCKS at it. He's 12 and should be more useful.
The kids go to Grandma's tonight, and I can't decide whether to go to the knitting meet-up or stay home and clean and then take a long bath. I'm feeling so closed in lately. I don't want go away on a vacation, I want my kids to for away for a week. A whole week. I want to clean one room and move onto the next without finding out someone has made more work for me. I want two whole days to box up old clothes, toys, books and whatever else junk needs to get the hell out of here. I want to get this house in order and work on the quilt and a little felting project I've been thinking about. I want to have sex and late dinners and long baths and pee in peace- just go to the goddamn bathroom without someone talking to me through the door. I want to invite a girlfriend over to sit in the back yard. We can talk and watch the moon come up.
My MIL has offered to take our whole family to Disneyland this fall. I was shocked. Who goes to Disneyland? All that money! But I guess she has it. I've been wondering if there's a way I could stay while they all go. I have no interest in going to any state more southern or hotter than Virginia. They can fly off to Florida and I'll stay here alone. Alone alone alone
