My Weekend Alone; Kind Of

Joel took the 4 older kids to Chicago this weekend. They saw a U2 concert. They said it was incredible. It looks incredible from the iphone footage I've just been watching. I admire Bono but his music makes me crabby in 4 minutes and 32 seconds. I know because I timed it once.

So, I stayed home with Zeke. It was really different.

1. The house stayed clean; well, clean-ish.

2. I did one load of laundry.

3. Most of what was in the dishwasher was coffee mugs.

4. I had complete thoughts.

5. I thought too much about the baby we don't have yet.

6. Only 2 places at the table were dirty rather than the entire 8 foot length.

7. Zeke doesn't eat all that much.

8. Zeke accounts for a lot of what is on the floor.

9. I had pita and hummus and cookies for 2 meals in row.

10. I'm really, really happy to see my 4 kids and my husband.
