Hubs is in Hawaii and Angel #4 is either working or running around with friends or her boyfriend. It was practically a treat to have her home alone with me all day Sunday. She's off to the basketball game tonight and it's really quiet around here. Usually I don't mind being alone, but it's been a little lonely around here lately. I know that's all going to change really soon. WE comes home on Friday night and will be here until January 3. Hubs comes home on the 25th and Angel #1 will be with him and will be here until the 31st. So both my boys are going to be home together. I'm looking forward to it like I usually do, but I also know that within a day those two and their constant wrestling around and one upmanship is going to drive me completely nuts and I'll be saying "isn't it time for you two to go back where you came from?" #1 is going to be working in Hawaii with hubs this week and is in the process of flying out there right now. He had a 3.5 hour layover in Houston, so Angel #2 picked him up and the two of them went to the Waffle House for breakfast. #2 posted pictures of the two of them on Facebook. I'm so glad my kids like getting together like that. It seems like just yesterday they were arguing and locking each other out of the house.
Friday night I was home alone again and I texted my friend Connie with the simple message: "I've got a jigsaw puzzle and a bottle of Riesling, come on over." Well, she did and we had a great evening snacking, drinking wine and doing a puzzle together. The problem is, we both get a little obsessive when we're doing puzzles. She came over around 7:30. Around 9:30 #4 came home with some friends and then headed out the door again. Soon after #4 texted me saying they were on their last game of bowling and she'd be home soon. I couldn't figure out why she was telling me this until she got home and I realized that it was after midnight and she knew she was going to miss her curfew. I have no idea how it got to be midnight so quickly. Then, the next thing I know, Connie's daughter called wondering where the heck she was since it was 2 o'clock in the morning! I really really don't know where the time went, I suspect we were abducted by aliens. We only had about one or two glasses of wine each, so it wasn't that. And we didn't get the stupid puzzle done that night either! I finally finished it up the next day.
