C'est Le Weekend: Women's Day

I came across this the other day:


I can relate, unfortunately.
I'm holding tight to the fact that the schools officially start again on Monday.
We've been together, non-stop, since the end of June.
And I need space.
And quiet.
ALL three boys are going to school on Monday - ALL DAY LONG.
The husband took Monday off, and we're going to Antwerp.
Nobody's snot nose will need wiping.
The husband won't cry and throw tantrums, run in front of cars, scream at me.
I hope.

We had to make an early start this morning, because my car got a new front window from that boom at my work's parking lot that fell on my car last year.
My exhaust is buggered too.
Sigh.
I don't like spending money I don't have.
Think it's time to trade in my gas-guzzling minivan for something more economic (and in better shape).

Then we drove to the Action to buy cheap new carpets for my car.
I cut 4 of my fingers in the process of getting the staples out of the carpets.
Mmmmm.

Think I need to sit quietly, sip coffee.
Just for a little while.
Until the PMS and uncoordinated movements-that-result-in-injury actually stop.
