RAINY DAYS

---

RAIN RAIN GO AWAY! Oh how the wind howled, how the rain poured and how the kids fought with umbrellas against it all! Needles to say, this weekend will been a rainy one. The dash to school was quite the adventure this morning before anther wet adventure to the gym! I then headed out to face the storm one more time for coffee and shopping with Jen. There is something I have recently discovered…that I ADORE leather…so of course when I found a leather belt…you can imagine how things went down hill (or up hill depending on your perspective!).

After some nice grown-up time, I went to get the kids and eat Paella at home before we hung around inside because of the rain. I then battled the rain with my comrades: Marta and Lucia to buy….ART SUPPLIES! (I figured a good thing to have for a rainy weekend!) We then made the trek back home, admits a lot of whining. Immediately upon our return home I took Marta and Elena to a near by mall so that they could eat burger king and play in the playground there. Of course that meant that upon our return, George throw a fit because he didn’t get burger king…on the joys of four kids! I then set abut putting them to bed and feeding the two-non-burger-king-eaters before I hit the town!

Well actually…they told me at 9:30pm that they weren’t going out and that I could go out (I love being told things last minute….well actually it’s helping me work on my flexibility so BRING IT ON!!) so I called all the au pairs and Beatrix and found two people to come out with me. So we met up super early—11pm and got drinks until 1 when we all left because we had to get up with the kids the next day…I feel like an old parent.
