End of the week

Got up lazy-like and at around 2pm took fourth son out for a bit.  Not anything amazing, but we got air in one of my truck tires (slow leak), some gas, drugstore trip, Target, and the grocery store.  Way too many stops, and I should know better, but it all had to be done.  Came home exhausted, but in a good way.  This son is fun to shop with, very patient, and just a neat kid.  Ah, and he bought me a box of hair color!  We're going chestnut this go around, so looking forward to that later on tonight.

Stir fry chicken for dinner and now everyone who's not working at the restaurant is either watching Lemony Snicket on the DVD player or just being alone.  Two of my chickens have something on their minds, but don't want to talk about it.  The struggles of motherhood AND the struggles of being young.  Hard all around, but just about growing up.

Looking forward to the settled quality of church tomorrow.  Clothes are ready and folded/hanging up, and now I just need some mental quiet space to level me off.  When life pinches, I need to allow more room in my head.

Take care.
