laundry...part 2

had to share this because of the subject of my last blog. it is sunday night about 10:30 and i just put in my last load of laundry. you see the kids are going to camp tomorrow and in order to pack enough clothes to last 5 days i've had to make sure everything was clean. so the washer is washing and the dryer is drying and i have 3 suitcases lined up in a row waiting for the last few pieces of fresh laundry to make them complete. i love camp. 5 days of freedom. oh the joy. me and my husband all alone in the house. we can actually sit in total silence. for 5 days i will not hear sentences started with mom, madre, or auntie. don't get me wrong i love all my kiddos, but 5 whole days. its worth all the extra laundry.

i now know that my daughter is officially a teenager. you would not believe the amount of clothes this child has packed. as she adds more she just smiles and says just-in-case. i told her she could only take 1 suitcase so just-in-case better fit.

for all of ya'll wondering the hockey jersey has been washed. believe it or not its white again. j is an alternate for the junior world team. they take a total of 8 players for the team and they have 8 alternates. so the training has begun. he must learn all the plays and be ready if the need arises. last year they used all the alternates so there is a good chance of him playing. so say a little prayer.

  1. How very exciting. 5 whole days. That is just unimaginable around here. Ahhh, I will just breath a little of your air for a moment.
