clock management...

this weekend i am playing mom, dad, peacemaker, warden, judge, jury, and executioner(minus the executioner), while allie is enjoying some time with her gal pals in a wisconsin cabin. it's not often that she is away on overnighters but she deserves the break and will give me a chance to bond with the kids in a way i don't always get a chance to. we have some activities planned, a movie, some homework, coerced piano practicing, and maybe some restaurant food, over the next 36 hrs. the goal is simple: we are in survival-mode until sunday afternoon and i just have to try to keep the wheels on the wagon and the inmates from running this asylum. more soon...
