Well Im revving up for what might end up being my most challenging Independence Day weekend ever! Now tomorrow will be a no brainer. Tracy and her neice and stepson willbe coming out for food, laughs, the kids will swim int he pool and then enjoying the block party in our neighborhood and fireworks as it gets dark. Now Saturday should prove to be MUCH more interesting.
Ive talked it over with Doug and I think Im going to go ahead and just show up at my Aunts suprise birthday party and faily fireworks celebration on Saturday. If I leave early enough in the day I can be there by afternoon and the kids can get some much needed running and playing out of their systems before heading to my families house to sleep. It will be a challenge.. a HUGE one, but i think I am up for it. I do think I will make he treck back alone too though rather than waiting for Doug to come back through. It just doesnt make sense for me to stay there... more than likely he will want my help or naviagtion skills in cas eof problems on the road again like his way there. That was a nightmare! He didnt have GPS but he had his "gps wife" on his bluetooth keeping him directed step by step with google maps! haha!
I have a lot to get accomplished if I DO intend on completing this task though. I need to get htings ready for the cooking tomorrow, and then I need to whip my butt into packing gear for me and the kids. I think just taking enough diapers for 3 days will work plus the trip. If I need more I can buy more, ya know? Besides it will save room in the SUV, althoghI dont think we will have issues with that. Im hesitant for just showing up since my parents arent good with suprises (especially Mom) but hopefully it will be a positive thing or else I will just stay with sumone else in the fam.
*sigh* I really am missing Doug a lot today. He has a night vision goggle flight tonight and a test this afternoon so I havent heard much from him. He said he would call me when he breaks for dinner. I'm looking forward to that call.
Dreaming of 10 days from now......
