Friday, January 06, 2006 AHHHHH...FRIDAY!

It is finally Friday...thank god! I don't know what I'll do next week when I have to work all 5 days, it's been almost a month since I've had to work a full week. I've decided that it's not exactly my job that I hate...right now it's pretty much working in general. I'd love to have a month to just sit around and do nothing...or clean my house...or read good books...or watch good movies...or even play in the snow. It's been years since I've had time like that. We take vacations but we are alway on the go and wind up more tired when we return then we were when we started. I think I really need an 'at home' vacation. We are headed on a cruise at the end of April which will be lots of fun...but I'll be exhausted when we return, maybe I'll take 2 weeks off and spend the second one recovering from the first.
My Baby girl turns 17 on Sunday, it is so hard to believe. It seems like yesterday when I was holding her in my arms and rocking her to sleep...where has the time gone. I'd like to rewind and start again but I know that's not possible...one more year and she too will leave the nest and head off to college...I HATE to even think about it. Hubby and I are taking her to a hocky game on Saturday, she is supposed to bring someone with her but, as of this AM, hasn't decided who, she has to work 9-6 on her birthday, which did NOT make her happy...but that's life. I guess she's having a few friends over after work for dinner, she hasn't told me yet how many or what I am supposed to feed them, I am ready to ring her neck. I really want to make her birthday special...but at this point it is in HER hands!
