NaBloPoMo #3

In order for me to go to my sister's doctor appointment this afternoon, I needed to find someone to watch all three of my children for several hours. As usual, I hit up my buddy Kim, who would have been delighted* to help out but was already taking on three extras for the afternoon. I quickly called another friend, Laura, who agreed to not only take my children to her home, but to do it on a split schedule - since one of hers and one of mine had afterschool activities.

When I finally arrived at her house at around 5:30 this evening, the ruckus of the combined six kids was shaking the windows. Or maybe that was just the ruckus from my three.

Laura, if you're reading this, I owe you big-time. And overtime. And a case of wine. Thanks!

*delighted = slightly deranged
