A Day of One's Own

I am taking a me day.

I don't know how deserved it is, but I do know how needed it is.

The past couple of weeks have been exhausting. Colds galore in the house. Pink eye. Sleepless nights. Crankiness (mostly me). So tomorrow I declare "Jennie Day". I have no idea how I plan to celebrate it. I don't want to think about it too much because something might keep it from happening and I don't want to spiral in despair from disappointment.

Little Boo and I will be having a girls' weekend. I need to gear up for that. Lots of goldfish crackers - for her. Wine - for mommy. I also need rest. Rest to prep for 2 days alone with a 2 year old who's wild and wrangy. By the time hubby gets back on Sunday, Boo and I might have each other's hair pulled out. But first, there's tomorrow. Sweet sweet Jennie Day.
