my friends have finally told me what to expect on that day. yes, i'm not the one for surprises. i like to plan things. here's what's in store:
saturday
4:30pm meet up at friend's place
6:00pm head out to dinner
9:00pm go back to friend's place and hang out/sleep
sunday
9:00am brunch. head home afterwards.
it turns out that this was organized for everyone. it's like a "hey-let's-meet-up-and-hang-out-wait-isn't-it-cheri's-birthday? thing. it wasnt just for me. it was a good wake-up call, i was kinda thinking they organized it for me. this being the case, jackjack would be spending the day at grandma's house. hubby will pick him up in the afternoon; his only condition was a couple of hours' rest and he's good to go. i would be meeting up with friends until dinner, then go home. i dont need to sleep over, especially when it's perfectly clear who needs my presence the most. this way, everybody's happy and i get to spend some time away. good enough?
to all who gave me advice on this topic, thank you. your words helped me know what to do.
This sounds like the perfect solution. You are going to have a much needed break, and have tons of fun, and not have the mommy guilt hanging over your head too. I can't wait to read about it.
ReplyDeleteI want to know what happen to jackjack when you're not around! Keep us posted! :D
ReplyDeleteBtw, thanks for your comment on my banana muffins recipe. The adults in the house are not into frosting or icing stuff... :(
I did checked out the blog link you sent me, that has gotta wait til I get to buy some pans and tins to make it!
I know you didn't post for this, and it may not even bug you, but man that sucks. I am always in that situation ... the one where you realize that it's not about you. I'm always the friend on the side, the one who feels like I have to ask to be invited to stuff. and that sucks ...
ReplyDeleteHave fun! Enjoy your time! and take pictures :-)
Enjoy - it sounds like it'll be fun!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great plan...just remember to have fun!
