Stupid Shiny Sun

Usually, I'm up a long time before the kids. Not this morning. This is the first thing I heard this morning thanks to Zippy:

"The sun's coming up."
*incoherent mumbling from me *
"The sun says it's morning." This time accompanied by a little shake of my arm.
"The sun says it's time to get up Mommy!"

This last sentence was shouted in my ear. I figured that since I would now need a massive dose of pain-killer to get rid of the headache I suddenly had, I might as well start the day. Stupid, shiny sun. He and I are going to have a long talk about waking my kids up. . . .

I DID IT!

I'm still digging myself and my house out from the chaos of me being gone for 4 days, but I've surfaced long enough to point out that I did it: I WENT TO FORKS!!!

So, now I can truly say it's like I've died and gone to Forks!

I'll post more pics and details soon, now back to the dishes that waited for me!

3 days!

That's right! Only 3 days left until I hop on a plane and take myself up to Forks!!!! Like a friend pointed out yesterday, I'll finally be able to justify the title to this blog. LOL Truly, I can hardly think of anything else. . . unless you count all the laundry, cleaning, packing, etc. I need to do before I leave. We just won't talk about that.

For the past 2 weeks, Z-man has been denying the existence of this trip. "You're not going anywhere," "I don't know what you're talking about," "What trip?" "What's Twilight?" Really funny stuff (insert eye-roll here). We'll just see what he says when he's in charge of our little world without me. What's Twilight indeed.
