No coffee for you!
If you happened to notice the late night chatter (to myself) here, then you’ll understand the title.
I did make it out the door relatively on time - only five to ten minutes behind the time I wanted to get to work. For that 7:30 meeting. But really, who counts the first five to ten minutes of a meeting? Only the pain the in ass people, that’s who. Luckily I don’t know of any that were scheduled (or not scheduled) to be there this morning. Also, another member of the team strolled in even later than I did, because she DID stop for coffee, and allegedly there was traffic. So I don’t feel so bad about that 10 minutes.
What I did get this morning was a really fun conversation with my son, who was telling me how excited he was that this weekend he would be with his dad AND they were having a three-day weekend. Isn’t that just so awesome, Mom? Yes, it is. Three day weekends are the be-
Hold on. What? What three day weekend?
Ahhh, just when you thought the winter break from school was over and things were setting back to normal, there’s ANOTHER SCHOOL HOLIDAY!
It’s not the first time this happened, where the observance of Martin Luther King Day snuck up on me and I was left with no childcare, due to my own dumb stupid lack of planning. Huh, look at that - only a year ago. You would think with the day rolling around every year I would be more prepared.
At the time I started this entry I still had not done anything to resolve the childcare issue. See how I do this to myself?
Ok, so he’s all set. I got him a spot for a YMCA camp for the day. Now, remind me I need to call his dad and tell him where to drop him off Monday morning, ok?
