One school out, two to go. Yes! No more driving to New Orleans on my days off....at least until son starts artsy fartsy camp the end of June.

Since my neck has completely frozen up from all of the driving of late, I am thrilled to stop for a break.

Speaking of breaks, husband and the kids are going out of town for 7 whole days in just 11 days. I will have the whole house to myself. Alone. By myself. Did I mention I get to be alone for 7 whole days?

Yesterday I was reading a high brow article in Ladies Home Journal about the insidious damage of being constantly overwhelmed by the day to day chores of living. That is me. The littlest things just seem to send me over the edge these days. Big crises are easy, getting kids out the door every morning is not.
