I love chauffering my sons all day

This past weekend was actually very full and tiring. It started Friday evening when I got down to the town in central Jersey to catch my youngest son's fall baseball game. Due to unusually heavy traffic and an accident I was only able to catch the last bit of his game. He kept asking his mom where I was. He had an ulterior motive though- the night before he asked if we could leave once I got there and go have dinner. He doesn't like fall baseball and was hoping I would bail him out of it. When I got there he finished it up and we went to the local pizza place we always went to when I still lived down there.

My oldest was playing paint ball for his friend's birthday party. He wasn't due back until 9:30 so the ex had told my youngest we could wait at the house. I have to say it was a bit surreal sitting watching cartoons in her house without her present and waiting for my oldest to get home. He got home about 9:30, we got in the truck and back up to Hoboken. The other thing that gave me a start is my oldest is in 6th grade now so he is now using deodorant and Axe body spray. That threw me.

I sent them right to bed because we had to get back down to central Jersey for another baseball game and tennis. We were up and out of the house by 9:30. Before we left I had told my oldest to shower up. He goofed off and didn't have time to take one. By the time we got down to his tennis place he was freaking out that his hair was all messed up. I told him he should have showered. He got dropped off and I took my youngest to his baseball game. By the time he was getting ready to play I had to go back and pick up my oldest from tennis. We all had lunch then my youngest changed out of his uniform into street clothes and got dropped off at a laser tag birthday party. My oldest and I then went to Borders and killed a few hours. I ended up buying Bender's Big Score.

We picked up my youngest and drove back to Hoboken. Sushi for dinner for my, the husband and my oldest since my youngest had pizza at the laser tag party. The boys watched Bender's Big Score and the husband and I watched some tv and hung art in the bedroom.

Sunday morning my oldest and I walked to the public tennis courts in Hoboken and played for a hour. He is getting really good and will soon be able to beat my ass. We then took a long walk along the Hudson back to the apartment. Lunch, hanging out, did some laundry to send them home in clean clothes and back in the truck to take them home.

As we were about to leave and in the truck in the parking lot my oldest said Dad wait, I forgot my book. So I ran back into the building and got into the elevator when lo and behold who jumps in but the hot neighbor and he greets me very nicely.

I seem to be catching the hottie bus in the mornings so far this week.

All of us on the desk were cracking up yesterday when Bernake was getting questioned by the House Budget Committee- seriously, Congress is a bunch of morons and goes to show the system does work- ANYONE can be elected to office in our great country. The stupidity of the questions definitely had to force Ben to drink ALOT at happy hour yesterday.

I am psyched it is Milk Duds and candy corn season. One of the women on our desk always has a huge bowl of candy next to her for all to partake of; if the desk was a Cub Scout den she would be the Den Mother. Milk Duds I associate with the movies and October and candy corn is only legally allowed to be eaten in the month of October so I guess October is my favorite month for candy.

We have the boys again this weekend. But next weekend I would like to see Max Payne or Rockandrolla.

JP basically yelled at me Sunday night for not writing last week. I was on facebook playing my latest obsession Tiny Adventures when he asked if it meant that since I was on-line was I writing a new post.
