...the best laid plans

My sissies, Debbie and Pam were going to come over tonight. They both had very busy days with two different swim meets. One as a coach, the other watching a child swim, while organizing the donations to have a concession stand and running it for a three day meet. Things ran late for everyone. Pam and Andy arrived first with hungry children. We ordered take-out that would be ready at 7:30. They wanted to have an early evening, their daughter Elie has to be back in the pool at 9am.  I wanted to see Debbie so bad, but it didn't work out. They wouldn't have gotten to my house until 9pm, without having dinner yet. Ben was crashed in bed at 10, he stayed up until 2am last night at his birthday party. His mood all day told me he wasn't lying.

I wish things could have worked out better. I may not have the busiest nights, socially, or the most productive days...but I do know I need to get Ben showered and in bed at a decent hour.
