DAY 56 - Friday, November 18, 2016

I am writing this on Saturday because I had zero desire to write a post yesterday. The day was good, but I was tired and after I got the kids to bed, I tidied the house up a bit and sat my butt on the couch. I have no regrets there at all.

So yesterday...

1. Jeff's office had a poker tournament last night. They do a whole-office tournament every year. Because he didn't get home until around 11:30 p.m., I was on my own with my little misters. My mom, who babysat the boys that day, was kind enough to have us over for supper, which saved me from having to prep supper and do the clean up at my house. In addition to making my evening easier, it was nice to visit with her and hang out there for a bit.

I really love my mom. She helps a lot with the boys and I hope she knows how much I/we appreciate it. Also, recently, I've gotten a new perspective on her and I appreciate even more what she does for us and have a renewed understanding of how much she loves her grandsons. I haven't told any of this to her yet (I did and do intend to), but she usually reads my blog, so she might end up seeing that here. The point is: I love her so very much and think the world of her as a grandma. <3

2. I'm not sure why, but this week felt really long, so I was very happy that it was Friday. I was also really looking forward to this weekend, spending time with Jeff and the kids, and enjoying the activities that we had planned.

3. Chocolate Chai Lattes. De-Freaking-Licious. Here's the deal: if you love chai lattes and you love chocolate, the next time you go to a coffee place, ask them to use chocolate milk instead of white milk to make your chai latte. Seriously. One more tip -- Stone's Throw by the university makes best ones in the city. You're welcome.
