We had a Ladies' Day Out last Saturday. A few hours of delicious food (yea for Restaurant Week!!), good conversation, and a fun show. And a break from being a mom. Why does it seem that the men get these chances more often than the women? S. helps out tons, but it just seems that it's easier for him to get away with his friends--to a Redskins game, Wizards game, just to watch some random game, or even go to a movie. It seems hard for the wives to coordinate a time when their husbands are home to watch the kids. Anyone have a solution?
We saw My Fair Lady at the Kennedy Center. It was really well done--I liked the dances, loved the costumes, but it left me with an entirely different feeling than Wicked. Wicked just made you want to be a better person. Although, "Poor Professor Higgins" developed into a tolerable character, it still didn't give me that warm fuzzy feeling.
I think it will be a while before I have another Ladies' Day Out with this third one coming...

The solution? Helpful husbands and enterprising wives :) Women need to plan more and take a little more time for themselves (this can be hard to maneuver at times) and then in turn the husbands need to be more supportive, as in "Get on out of here! Go have fun! I can handle 3 kids no problem! I mean, after all, you do it all day!" That's what I'm talkin' about ladies. Helpful. Husbands.
Amen. Nothing like a man who can put Martha Steward to shame.
Go S.
