"Hey baby! Wanna ride?"
"Hi there big boy! Want some company?"
The first was shouted at me a few weeks ago as I waited for the bus home. I was charmed, as it was Chris shouting it at me. He had a doctor's appointment downtown, realized that I was probably going to be waiting for the bus at the same time as he was going to drive home, took a chance and found me before the bus did.
The next was said by me to him, the next week, when I found him waiting in the car near my bus stop.
It's become a new tradition. He's always downtown Wednesday afternoons, so he picks me up. I was unexpectedly upset at missing it last week when I had to take Justin to the doctor.
Wednesday is quite the challenge - in a good, but rather exhausting way.
- 7:00 => wake up, get kids & self ready for school
- 7:35 => hurry off to bus
- 8:35-approx 1PM => Musical Courts
- afternoon => clients, research, occasional afternoon court appearances
- 5:10 => car date
- 5:40 => get home, whirlwind of getting kids ready to go
- 6:15 => biggest weekly grocery shopping trip
- 7:00 => taekwon-do
- 8:30 => home, make dinner
- 8:45-whenever => dinner, put kids to bed
Observations:
- I like riding the bus, I really do, but it's nice to get a drive one night of the week.
- TKD only once a week is brutal. Despite walking to and from the bus stop every day, I can feel my previous fitness leaving me :(
- After Wednesday, the rest of the week is like falling off a log
- 11:00PM sleep time sounds pretty good right now.
