TGIF

I'm stocked for tonight. A bottle of vodka, orange juice, alka seltzer cold, Sudafed, Nyquil, Kleenex........yeah, I have an awful headcold.

My oldest son leaves tonight for a "technology camp" and won't be home until Sunday. I wanted to plan something special with my youngest this weekend as it is just me and him. I need to get rid of this cold!

My oldest's scout troop plans an activity one weekend a month. I am grateful for this - not to get "rid" of him, but for the two kids to be apart from each other for a while.

They are fantastic kids but have a tendancy to fight, argue, bicker, and annoy each other as soon as they get home from school.

I have asked Dad to take the kids separately from time to time, but hell, he never wants to see either of them.

I told their father last night at least the kids are in scouts and that is where they are getting their adult male role model....and I am grateful to the guys that are in charge of scouts. Fantastic and patient!

Anyway, no set plans for this weekend. My youngest is the "artsy" one so may have to check out the art museums as we haven't been there since hockey started. Of course, while we are in the neighborhood, we always have to go to Sebastian Joe's Ice Cream...our favorite little ice cream shop!

Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!
