What's with TODAY, today?

I tried to write today’s post unsuccessfully several times, but I was feeling sorry for myself so I came off sounding, well, like I was feeling sorry for myself. Not something I wanted to immortalize in a blog post. So I will say that this weekend, save for a couple nice hours with MamaFuss and kids Saturday evening, was not really a great weekend for me.

There were a couple bright spots though. Happy hour was delightful with a few people that I wouldn’t really say that I’m good friends with, but I had fun with them. There was one good friend and three acquaintances, and I found myself at the end of HH wondering why I didn’t talk to those people more.

Saturday, despite torrential rain through the middle of the day, the kids and I were able to meet up with the Fuss crew at the new-and-improved Largo park playground. The playground was nice before, but now it is amazing! I wish I lived closer; we would definitely be there more often. It was exhaustively hot but nice to see friends that we unfortunately do not get to see that often. Spencer pouted a lot when he had to leave Caroline, despite that he refused to play on the merry-go-round (he’s a timid one). I tried to upload photos, but blogger has thwarted my attempts, so poo.

Sunday was a very bad day for me, but I made up for it by taking a lovely 2-hour nap which helped my disposition immensely. People who don’t understand how I could sleep through children waking up at night: I actually slept on the couch while Hubby watched the soccer game and both kids played on the floor. The whole time. I didn’t wake up until #2 started screaming like he had shut his hand in a door (FYI, he hadn’t, he was just really tired and thusly went straight to bed, do not pass go).

This week has the potential to be better, I hope. I am taking a half day on Wednesday so that Hubby and I can have an afternoon date of lunch and Harry Potter. I’m supposed to have book club Wednesday night, but one of the members is out of town and wasn’t able to come last month so I’m thinking about trying to push it to next week. I otherwise have no plans. None. Maybe I’ll run, how’s that for predictability?
