Not good.
Ben whined and lingered upstairs too long this morning.
When I came down he was dressed (save his shoes).
But apparently it takes him ten minutes to walk from his room to the bathroom to brush his teeth.
I kept calling up to him..."Ben, the bus will be here any time now!"
He came down and threw himself on the couch....still no shoes on.
In the middle of yet another rant about his brothers hour later wake up than his...we heard that familiar diesel engine chugging up the street.
I looked out the door..and sure enough...it was his bus.
Come...and gone.
Ben jumps up....grabs his shoes (which are still not on his feet) and chucks them across the room.
He turns to me with tears in his eyes and says...."SEE WHAT YOU DID MOM!"

Ditto to Sterling! I day at the Spa would be good, maybe a couple of days at a nice hotel that has a spa. Of course clearing your schedule would be a challenge. You can send a kid to our house on the weekend.

It's posts like this one that lets me know we aren't alone in this world. That could have been my house on any given morning.
