It's Friday!

I am so glad it's Friday. I am sure most people feel this way when Friday comes. I am so excited that the time change is this weekend. The sun starts shining through my curtains at 6 every morning. Mackenzie also rolls in our room about this time. I think it's because her bay windows face the front of the house where the sun shines the most. I'm ready for me to get home and it not be dark outside. When it's like this I feel as if my day has been wasted. All I've done is gotten up and gone to work and come home and that's it. I love the sun.

Mackenzie is out of school on Monday because it is the parent/teacher conference day. I've got my appt. at 9. Her teacher told me yesterday I didn't have to come in unless I wanted to because Mackenzie is doing so well. I'm still going any way. My little ray of sunshine is doing great at school. I always knew that when she graduated from high school I'd be 38. That's not too old and fine and dandy. I just added it up and I'll be 43 when Jackson graduates. Oh my gosh, I'm going to be so old when that happens. I turned 25 a few months after he was born but I guess I just didn't realize how old I was then. I can't imagine having kids any later than that. Doing the math today made me confirm the fact that I am not having any more kids. I just don't want to keep starting the time clock over again and again. Lee will be 50 when Jackson graduates from high school. Yikes! That's old!

My birthday is coming up next month and I'm dreading it. I didn't think I'd really care or it'd bother me getting older. I thought Lee was crazy for his denial of his 30th birthday but now I'm understanding it. So is 27 still mid-twenties or late twenties? Please someone tell me I can be in my mid-twenties for one more year. Late twenties? You're never in your late teens. Just late twenties, late thirties, late forties and heaven forbid your late fifties. I don't know where my complex has come from all of the sudden. I guess I should just be happy I'm alive.

Lee and I had a late lunch together today. We ate at McGuires and typically it's really good but it was just awful today. It's frustrating for me to eat somewhere and have a horrible experiences. I am particular because of Lee being in the restaurant business but it wasn't good. They usually have great hamburgers but this time, mine especially, was burnt all over the outside. It wasn't medium, we're talking well done. The manager who first came over was wanting to give us fresh ones but when we waited over 40 mins for burgers I just didn't have any more time. The owner came over and was rude to us and even though he did take off one of the burgers on our ticket he was a butt. Lee stood up to shake his hand and to tell him that he'd heard great things about him and that he's a friend of so and so who works there but the dude just stood there. Then turned around and walked off.

So Lee's a/c went out in his car. Yeah, no fun at all. He's getting it fixed as we speak and he just called to tell me that the compressor went out. It's going to cost at least a grand to fix it. The joys of adulthood. That's a lot of money right now but you know we'll figure it out as we always do. It seems like if it's not one thing it's another. Gotta love life!
