Leaving not a drop of sap in the trees

I just have to say that I have the best boyfriend in the entire world.

No, that's not true. The entire solar system. Galaxy? To infinity and beyond?!

Anyone that would drive an hour to meet his girlfriend's tired, grumpy, travel worn family members at a train station in the middle of Richmond just so they wouldn't have to sit alone in a train station in the middle of Richmond together for 2 hours and 20 minutes is an absolute angel.

Wow ... I'm a lucky, lucky girl.

He has no idea how much easier he just made my life. I'm not a total screw up! I picked a good one! Go me!

And now, instead of having to listen to my mom complain about what a handful my son is for the hour long drive home from OUR train station, I get to try to steer the conversation back to him and how wonderful he is, thus proving that, although I may be an absolute failure as the raiser of well behaved children, I rock at picking out boyfriends!

They are coming home. My daughter is crushed. She kind of enjoyed having me all to herself, when she was here, anyway.

It's a long ride home from Rocky Mount. Then we're going to karate, which is another long ride. Then, after 3 hours of sweating and wincing, we have another long ride home. We'll be home somewhere around 10:30. I SO need coffee.
