Stayin' up late tonight

Kevin is home!  He got here by 1 this afternoon.  Then he took a nap.  *sigh*  How dare he?  How can a person SLEEP so much?

Then, I took a nap.  ROFL

It's a good thing, too.  The Nascar race was rained out, but they're planning on starting back up soon.  I'm going to make it through as much as possible.  I'm wide awake now, but when I feel like I'm drifting, I'll go to bed.

While Kevin was in Carthage, he came across an incredible deal.  A store was closing out their supply of Gain laundry detergent.  He brought home 12 bottles!  LOL  The total cost was $6.  You just can NOT pass that kind of deal up.  I was so excited.

He also brought home a bunch of orange juice.  The last time his Mom got a good deal on OJ, we wound up throwing some out.  It's just too much.  I think I'll take some of it over to Mom's.  A couple of gallons, anyway.

The dog was as happy as the rest of us to see Kevin get home.  At one point, Kevin went into the bathroom without Hawkeye noticing, and the poor dog paced from room to room, whining.  It was as if he was thinking, "Oh jeez, woman, you lost him AGAIN!  He JUST got back!"  Too cute.  I finally made Kevin say something out loud so the hairball could relax.

There is a chat meet forming in June.  I'm excited at the prospect of going.  The plan is for a few of the East coast folks to fly into KC, then we'll all drive down together in one big vehicle (possibly rented) or in a couple of mid-sized cars.  I have to decide on a plan of action for the care of the girls, but there is a neighbor girl who, at 16, is VERY responsible.  Maybe Kevin's mom could come up?

Anyway, that would be so much fun, and if we all work together to split fuel costs, the 8 hour drive won't be that bad.  I also think that maybe I can do it with only taking 1/2 day vacation.  BONUS!

OK, time to change laundry over, and get settled in for at least part of the race.  I'd love to see the whole thing, but it could go pretty late.  Have a great week, my friends.
