We've had a busy Fall so far ... family and friends in town, a successful Renegade Craft Fair for Repeater Printing and BC Print Media, a wedding and bachelorette party for one of my favorite art directors ... sometimes I feel like I'm 25 again, or living a double life. We've been out and about, having fun, enjoying Chicago, but also doing plenty of school and family stuff with Molly.
I mentioned to another parent at the playground that Jason was going to watch the Cubs game with some friends (go Cubs!) and she made a comment like, "Oh, once they turn 5, do you get your life back?" and it kind of surprised me. I guess we haven't had to give up too much (at least lately ... maybe she's right about the age 5 comment, ha!). Being a parent is a lot of work, so it's hard to carve out time for the other stuff. But I'm happy that we do. No more complaining that we are busy!
We had a fun dinner last night with friends while our girls watched a movie in the basement, tonight we're going to a school fundraiser, tomorrow Molly and I are going downtown to cheer Archie on in the marathon, then Jason goes to a concert, and I go out for a fun dinner with my sisters. Everybody wins!
