Need to see Bubba more often...

Blog posts are getting spaced out due to lack of quality Bubba time... however, my sanity has taken a small tick upward. ;-)

Sunday was quiet, Bubba got bagels and complained about the new owners of our favorite bagel place don't have stuff as well run as the previous owners... you got your bagel and tomato/onion mess - eat it and hush.  And frankly that was a nice way to start the day, coffee bagel, the Sunday paper a discussion over issues - my complete amazement on how completely uninformed my husband is on the world around him.   Apparently he spoke to a co-worker regarding that and said he didn't have to be as I made up for it and kept him in what he needed to know... seriously?!?   Prime example is that the hubby had no idea what Occupy Wall street was... of course explaining it wasn't easy - kinda like the news... I wonder if he knows about Penn State?  That is football but he doesn't do college football - so maybe - yeah probably because he reads ESPN on line.

I left and did some Ladies' Group stuff - including making sandwiches and considering the bitching and whining done regarding said "lodge activities and the money they suck - it was easier to go shop, lodge, make the sandwiches and move on with my day.... and I did.

Home, supper, football, fall asleep due to 2 nights of back trouble, wake up watch, wonder WHY I woke up, then bag the game knowing full well it wasn't going to be a pretty ending... and it wasn't.

Up later than my usual time, remembering in vivid color why I now get up early... into work leave a bit early for Ladies' group meeting which promises to be long and boring, find out couple of kids have bailed on me for dinner helpers so.. get moving up to the lodge, all is good... dinner done.  My troubled kid and her mom show up so I got to give hugs and talk and generally let both know they have a support system in place if they need it.  I hope that helps. we shall see.

So... meeting, long, clean up committee, longer, home 11:45 PM.  Bubba and pups in bed, me not far behind, up longer to mellow out and digest all the nibbles I kept sneaking all night long... urp.  Slept in late Tuesday morning and paid a HEAVY price... 2 hours into work and I wanted to work a longer day to make up for Monday and Thursday.... ouch and double.  I have promised myself not to complain about the hour I arise and the carpool I enjoy any more - that drive was just painful.

Today - up early-- out 30 minutes later than carpool, but still 35 minutes into work - can you beat that!  Yes actually if I had been in the carpool lane it really would have been zippy-do and da!  I am today also working a bit long so I can leave a bit earlier on Thursday Nana is leaving early, Sis is not - since I don't think Nana will take kindly to sitting in her car waiting for me to check in Thursday night - I will make my way north a bit earlier than I planned - bonus dinner with Nana... now where did I put that guide book for the outlets... and I wonder what she wants to eat...

Tonight!  That boys and girls promises to be a busy one, we have a kitchen to clean and dinner to prepare, we have laundry that needs finished and probably some ironing but that will wait until Sunday... and football... I have to make sure Bubba has enough supplies not to starve to death in the 2.75 days I will be gone... :-)

Yes he knows how to order in, pick and in some cases delivery... my biggest concern is the pups - he has to remember I'm not home and to get his backside home and deal with them... oh yeah Bubba and be nice and pet them and love them... not feed them and ignore them... Not that Shelby will let you but hey...

What else do I need to take with me... oh yes the Bubba detector to ensure he does not hear me speaking of his family - just in case the topic should arise... my sneakers, my warm woolies and my enjoyment of watching the little acorn frustrate the young sapling and the might oak... i.e. Niece M, My sister and my mother for those nuts did not fall far from their trees... I on the other hand did not roll far from Daddy's tree of 'let it go - until the flaming temper of white hot anger - then the cooling breeze of having released....

I wonder if that is mentioned in that work personality thing I took ... I'll go back and read that one.  If not it should be or it could be a good heavy metal band name And now taking to the stage Flaming Temper of White Hot Anger"  (insert drunken crowd noise here)

My brain is a twisty scary place isn't it?

speaking of twists - just had a fun thought - I wonder if Shelby is going to try and get Bubba up at o-dark-30 when I arise because she wants breakfast and it's time to pee.... oh yeah that should be fun... more so when he calls me and announce that he didn't get up and found a present later when he did... I really shouldn't laugh -- really not funny at ALL.. (snort giggle)  Ahem.

So That is all the news that is fit to print, I will fully document my estrogen filled weekend of shopping and fun upon my return so stay tuned for that bit of fun and with any luck good gossip!
