Up Too Late -March 4th

March16

GEDC0374

Seems that lately, That One has had a lot of longer hauls, and for him that means a lot of late night driving. Well, late for me, since I need to be up by 6am. We try to strike a compromise with his schedule and mine with more or less success. On the 4th, he was talky, and so I stayed up way late. In fact, if you mouse over the picture, you can see it was actually made on the 5th. At about 12:18am, to be exact. Not that I checked or anything.

It’s funny, in a sad way. Those talky conversations are punctuated with lots of “are you there”s. Apparently, he’s not used to a girl who is content to listen while he talks. That’s fine, I’m not used to a boy who actually talks. It’s sad, isn’t it? What a commentary on how people really treat each other. I like to listen, because I like learning more about my friend. I guess he likes to talk because not many people have listened before, so it works out real well, except for that sleeping part.

P.S. I guess you can tell from the title that I have given up trying to count the days of Project 365. I figured it was time to stop before I went crazy enough to need social security disability for math anxiety. From now on, you get a title and the date. The end.

I'm Cass. I am a full-time mom to eight great children, a Christian and a blogger. I'm also a knitter, a reader and a movie watcher. And a collector of eclectic oddities.

For the first time in 18 and a half years, I have my own little corner again. Somewhere along the way, I seem to have lost myself, and now that I realize I'm missing, I'm on the look out for me. You maybe don't know what that means, but then again, maybe you do. Regardless, this is where I'll be when I'm not being a mother or a knitter. This is where I'll be just me. And if no one ever reads it, that's ok. I'll know it's here.
