goodbye offspring

woke up, packed the hotel room up. felt awful driving away from somewhere I knew DW was. Went up to bham to drop the kids off with Papaw. We met at a chickfila in Hoover, AL, which I now know to be the most confusing city in America. First I went the wrong way to get to the restaurant so we had to turn around. The parking lot was so confusing and congested that it took me almost 10 minutes to park. We let the kids play in the playplace and eat lunch for a while.

While papaw supervised the kids, Samm and I went to fill up the gas tank so he'd have a full tank and vacuum out the van. I got lost the first time, found a closed gas station and realized I forgot my wallet. After almost an hour!!! I finally filled up and cleaned out the van. Went to say goodbye to the kids and head back home to Mobile after Papaw and the kids drove off.

sam and i stopped at best buy on the way home to get some music to listen to on the drive. Made a dinner of tollhouse cookies and rocked out on the drive. She kept talking about how going to harry potter at universal was her one dream in life, so I spilled the beans that Dennis had planned a surprise vacation for us. hilarious!

We finally got home and I spent the kid-free night cleaning. Yay!
