Best Part of the Day-
Playing the board game, Cranium, mid-week with friends and wine. Silly fun, but must say--we crushed 'em! (Who knew I could not hum for sh*t?!)

Worst Part of the Day-
The kiddos would simply not wind down this pm. I usually put them down before I make my grand exit for evening fun n' games. Not so, tonight. The kids were "wound up", as people over 50 say...they were running out of beds, jumping, wrestling, playing. Neither seemed to be into listening to a word I was saying. For Will-O's part, he lay lounging on a couch amidst it all unphased--watching the M.U. b-ball game on t.v. while the chits ran around like crazed monkeys let loose in a family home. I was mildly irked by his laid backness...he was just looking at me like, just chill out, man--let kids be kids. I'm all for kids--(just tucked in, sleeping by 7pm.)
At 8-ish, I left the house feeling unnerved by the loose ends that remained untied (kids awake!) Must let it go, let it go...
