Friday Night Tighty-Whites

Yes, it’s midnight exactly.  And I turned into a pumpkin.  The end.

Okay.  Not really.  I’m still awake waiting for my husband’s underpants.  That’s right, his underpants.  He’s leaving for Minneapolis in the morning (at 5 a.m., I think) and he had not one single clean pair of underwear to pack.  He informed me of this truth when I returned from the grocery store at 10:20 p.m.  Whoops!

I am a dismal homemaker.  But a fantastic Vacation Bible School director!  We had an average of 91 kids over our five days.  Not a single problem worth mentioning, either.  This was my eighth year directing Vacation Bible School and, though I always fret a month of so before the start, the event itself generally runs smoothly.

And the kids had a fantastic time. 

Tomorrow?  I’m staying in bed as long as possible.  (Sure, I’ll have to get up at 7:00 a.m. with my daughter, but I’ll settle her in with the television–my favorite and cheapest babysitter–and go back to bed.)

Oh, did I mention my husband will be gone all week?  I am torn between wanting to scrub my house and clean my closets and wanting to play tourist around the state.  (Let me just be honest.  We are just going to play.  Though tomorrow I will clean.  Yes, I will.  You just wait and see!)

Well.  Okay.  I guess that’s all for now.  I’m all yawny, but I have to wait for underpants to dry.

Oh, finally.  I am dying laughing over this story of the woman who called 911 because she thought the deputy was cute.  (The cute deputy returned and arrested her for misuing 911.) (Here’s another article about her.)

  1. Next time you go shopping pick up a 6 pack of undies & keep them hidden in your sock drawer. That why if they are needed, voila the wonderful wife has them & them are all new & shinny.
    Clean a little, play a little & travel before the gas goes higher.
    Happy weekend & have a great week

  2. That article cracked me up as well. I’d like to think I would never be that desperate for a man if I were single, but you never know about these things!

  3. I’ve been in your shoes many a night. Laundry is my least favorite chore so it tends to slide until my hubby lets me know, usually late the night before, that he has nothing to wear to work the following day.

    Congrats on a successful VBS! I knew you’d do a great job.
