Manless

So, this is the big Birkebeiner cross country ski race weekend, and Steve is doing his 20th consecutive race…kudos to him!  My boys will also be gone overnight as well for a church function which means I WILL BE MANLESS FOR 36 hours!!!!!  The joys of a clean house, quiet music, books…and control over the remote are simply cherries on top of the fact that I don’t have to cook or respond to “MOOOOMMMM” for a great stretch of time.  The thought of being in my house and not having to say a solitary word is pure luxury.  No one will be there to storm in while I’m doing my business and demand they get their computer time, and I can take a bath without a certain someone leaning on the door in a “How you doin” kind of way.  I am relishing being by myself in a way that my younger self would have been horrified at.  Stupid girl.  She didn’t know how good she had it!
