Relaxing with the Olympics
It has been a long week. Really, aren’t all weeks long? Anyhoo…by tonight at 7:00 p.m. I had had enough of my children bickering and Lainie crying because she was tired. The children were in bed by 8:25 p.m. (a world record! And the winner of the gold in the category of shoving children into bed early….is….the USA contender, CAROLYN SWAFFORD!!!!!)
I sat. I drank green tea and broke my general rule of not eating after dinner. I kept the volume low on the tv (ah, the sound of quiet), knit on a hat for Cole and watched the Olympics. So nice…funny how 2 1/2 hours of peace and quiet can make a person feel human again.
TGIF, people!!!

Sounds like a really good evening. I was probably in bed by 825 too. I don’t think I sounded like Lainie though I might have felt that way.
