The End Of A Very Long Week
It has been a very long week for California Girl and me. With the fall sports season starting, we had “extra” chauffeuring duties to ensure that the children got everywhere that they needed to be. I don’t know how parents with more than two children or less flexible work schedules manage. The Girl wants to go out and do something tonight. Ordinarily, I would be happy to drive her; but today, all I want is dinner and bed. Unlike her, I need to be up early tomorrow so I’d like to get some rest. In the fall, Saturday is just like a work day, I need to be up early, I’m out and about most of the day, and I don’t get back until late in the evening.
What a difference a week makes. Last Saturday I went to dinner and then a night club California Girl. This Saturday will be devoted to the kids and their sports. That’s not to say that I don’t enjoy watching them play; I do. It just highlights the difference between the summer and then being “in season”. And I’m charging my camera battery so I can be ready.
Update: The Girl decided to go shopping with one of her girlfriends. So it’s going to be a relatively early night for everyone since the stores around here don’t stay open very late. Perhaps there will be time to “play house” with California Girl before bed time.
