Parenting....

Took the step-son and his girls to the concert last night. Dropped them off. Then P and I were foot loose and fancy free. So we went to the diner and ate. We split a cheeseburger and fries just so we would have room enough for desert. We must be getting old. While P qualifies for senior citizen rates in certain places, I don't .... yet.
A little tv, a little reading in bed and that was it for us. Boy, we are a couple of real live wires! I was on the computer early this morning when Scott came down to relate how one of his girl got sick three songs into the main concert! Bummer Dude! The joys of being a parent.... They left and had to call a cab to bring them home. He said they could hear the band playing a bunch of the old hits while they were out in the parking lot waiting for the cab. And they'd been waiting for three months for this concert. Major disappointment. Happy to say the daughter is feeling better today, but......

Time to rearrange things in the den here. Too much stuff, too cluttered. Have to clear off a space if I ever want to do anything, like write a note. There must be a better way to configure the furniture in the room. I like the computer table where it is, have a great view of the backyard, the critter feeders and birdbath. And there aren't too many places the treadmill can go either. Kind of limits the possibilities. Unless something radical is done. Move something to another room? No, then you start getting into P's space. That adds a whole other dimention of things to consider that I'm not sure I want to tackle just yet.
