…in case you were wondering.

I took yesterday off. I tried not to answer my phone, ignored most emails, didn’t blog, and made myself not think about any of it. I took the day off because starting tomorrow I will be as busy as I ever have been. Shaun and I have four days in Ohio and Missouri, then I fly to New Orleans to meet up with Phil.

Twenty-seven days. Away from my wife and my kids.

The big boys and I decided to take off before noon and grab some corndogs at Sonic. We ate outside of the car because it was “kinda like a picnic”. Green and blue slushies (and a peach smoothie for me) and lunch was taken care of. After that we went over to the movie theatre to watch Underdog. We got there early so we played in the fountain and tried to open different doors and sneak into the theatre. Movie tickets, check. Sour gummy worms, check. It was no surprise but we were the only three in the theatre so I told my five year old that it was a special movie, just for us.

It was a quick afternoon, but fun to actually be able to take the boys out, skip nap time, and have some fun. Tonight we are camping out in the yard for Gresham’s birthday which will round out a great weekend (err…week days?) home.

Oh yeah, and I got pissed at our car last night so I got a new one.
