Lame. Let me know if you need a night out! I can watch the kiddos or we could catch a movie (since I know you have soooo much spare time). Love you!
I want to know how you managed to NOT explode? What a bummer! I'm still mad Peter's work held a week long business trip the first week in December. Of course, he is filling an unexpected open shift on Christmas Eve, but now I know that is only chump change compared to what it could be.
