Doing Myself In Again

Today was a much better day.

I spent most of the day with a very dear friend of mine, and my kids. I told hubby he had the day off...so nap..chill...whatever. We spent the entire morning int he pool, and on the playground. Finally the kids wore themselves out, so we came back to the camper, made lunch and then put kidlets down for a nap.

Friend and I sat out in the shade, cold drinks in hand and caught up.

Then we went to Chuck E. Cheeses of all places for dinner, but we hit a good night, the place was empty, peaceful. My kids had the run of the place, and had a freaking blast. They absolutely loved it. I loved watching them have such a great time.

They are having such a good time on this trip, it is almost enough to get past the shit.

My head is still where it was yesterday, but I'm calm now. I'll worry about stuff when I get home. Tell tale signs that I have a lot on my mind though are the usual, "insomnia" issues I've always had.

At least seeing my friend had a super calming influence on me today. We are going into the city tomorrow, to Sears Tower and Navy Pier. I'm excited, but if I don't sleep it's going to be a bust.

I'll update more tomorrow if I have a chance.

Peace,
