wine or whine.
Aha thought that might get your attention! Well now that my day is almost over and I am snuggly in my pajamas I am going to attempt to write and leave you wanting more of my wisdom. Hee hee. As I stare at this screen and think about writing of loftier subjects like love or marriage(don't worry it's coming soon) I suffer slight writer's block. This perplexes me after the barrage of ideas that left me jotting notes while driving. Here you thought texting and driving was a bad idea, just try using your dashboard as a desk, whoa, just missed that truck. So anyway here I sit getting slowly eaten alive by child size mosquitoes that have found a hole in a screen somewhere in this old house. . WHERE ARE YOU COMING FROM??? Lord, off the subject again, not only writer's block but A.D.D. as well! I sit and sip my wine and think thank the Lord or Buddha for mommy's little helper. My bff and I have been doing babysitting swapping so we can save money. Well it's a great idea, but after an already long day, taking care of 2 beautiful boys just makes the day even longer. Especially when my own precious one never took a nap and proceeded to have very strange tantrums over a big red ball. Ok, crazy, time for a bath and BED! One down one to go. So I sat down to write, relax, and drink my wine and the 8 yr old tells me to be careful aunt Robin you don't want to get drunk. Well, yes, honey, as a matter of fact, I want to do just that. Unfortunately as good as that may sound I will just end up w/one outrageous migraine and spend the day staring down the toilet water. You see with 2 jobs, a child, and well you know the rest, there is nothing like a glass of wine at the end of a day. It doesn't have to be the best, it just has to do the trick. Don't get me wrong, I certainly enjoy VERY GOOD EXPENSIVE wine, but a 5.99 bottle works just as well. A glass of wine can make me forget the llama almost biting my child, moving carloads of furniture for the store, 2 unbelievably exhausting shifts at the restaurant including a friendly rodent making new friends on the patio and even the endless stories and questions from an 8 yr old boy at 10:00 p.m. Ah salvation, it appears my bestie has arrived and my duties are over for the day and now it is time to fil my glass. Goodnight world.
