There is nothing that can bring one right back down to reality after spending the last almost 48 hours literally in the throne room of God like:
a) emailing a whole bunch of friends and family to tell them you want to be a writer and want them to go check out your blog and leave comments and get a call from Oprah and the Today show because you are just the next big thing…to getting on your blog and see that not one single soul has left a comment. Very humbling. Now I know that I have WAY too much time on my hands being a stay-at-home mom with no kids to take care of – while the rest of you are busy with kids, dogs, husbands, jobs, TIVO/DVR and the like and that I just have to be patient. Man, not so sure I have what it takes for that 🙂
or
b) Getting excited to see the afore-mentioned kiddos for dinner (even though you are dog tired yourself), but when you arrive you find 2 very dirty, extremely tired boys that want nothing to do with you. They don’t want anything to do with anything else either – and all they really need is a warm bath and pillow – but they are too tired to even realize this. And while my head knows this – my heart still was a little sad they didn’t want to be with me.
So, what is a single mom with no kids to do with her night? I know I promised the review of David Crowder from last night – but since no one is really reading these things…I think that can wait till tomorrow when my head isn’t enshrouded with the cloudiness of sleep.
No, I think the only thing I can manage is to curl up with my bobo (it’s not what you think silly – it’s just my little blanket that Tristan didn’t want, so he gave it to me), get hopelessly lost in the tale of Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet for the – well who knows how many times I’ve watched it…and wait for it to be a sane hour to go to sleep where I won’t wake up too early.
Hasta Luego, chicos!
