It was a lazy Sunday in Elleville. I took advantage of the house being just my teenaged Dumpling and me, and slept gloriously late. Without Steel, or young Dumpling, who are both early risers, milling about, or inquiring as to breakfast status, I rolled over at 9:00 am and went right back to sleep. It was a luxury I am not afforded often, as young Dumpling and I are up with the sun Monday-Friday for school, and we always seem to have sports or engagements on weekends that make sleeping past 7am a no-go. I didn't rouse until Steel texted me at 10:15 to make sure I was alive.
I got out of bed, made coffee, and enjoyed it while catching up on the DVR. I didn't even become a full human until well after noon-- and it was FABULOUS. I feel refreshed and ready to face the week.
I gave the bathrooms a quick once over, ran the vacuum, and put away a load of laundry. That's all I can claim I did today that was productive.
Steel and younger Dumpling are on the road now and headed towards home, with an ETA of another two hours or so. I had big plans to make homemade pasta, and make some chicken parm, too; but that plan never materialized. They will grab something on the road, teenaged Dumpling will make a sandwich, and I'll probably have a bowl of Frosted Flakes.
My Dumplings only have three weeks of school left for this year, chock full of end-of-year activities, field trips, formal banquets and parties, so the next three weeks will be jampacked for all of us.
Tomorrow is Sarge's birthday and he took the day off duty, so I am going to work a little in the morning, then head down to his city for the day and evening. I plan to take him to dinner and maybe to see Guardians Of The Galaxy 2. I'll head back home after rush-hour traffic clears.
I am excited for Steel to come home tonight. I miss him so much, and am excited for one of his tight hugs. We fit like two puzzle pieces. I am also excited (and nosy) to hear how he feels his newly formed friendship with new girl is progressing.
I always welcome comments, compliments and complaints here, so don't be shy, say hello!
