Ay!

So.

This school "vacation" thing is a little bit distracting to a stay-at-home mother writer blogger.

Too much "Can I have a play date?" nonsense and "Um... are you going to make lunch? It's 3 o' clock..."

Or worst of all, the "Oh, don't worry about me. I'll just go sit in my room and read. Did you know I read 245 pages yesterday?"

You are consumed with bad-mom guilt (even though it's not like you were off gallivanting around town getting your toenails done, you were at the supermarket buying her that damn lunch she needed so badly) to the point you agree to a re-enactment of this event from last year, from which you're STILL tired. Not to mention 10 pounds heavier. But you're doing it anyway. What the heck, right? It gets the job done.

I'm definitely adding in a yarn store, though. No more Ms. Nice Guy. I want some Habu for a Kusha Kusha. (OK. That sounds WAY more exciting than it actually is. Maybe I'll even leave out the hyperlink so you all can think I'm doing something more exciting than getting dragged to tourist traps by my 12-year-old.)

On second thought, I don't think I want virtual strangers - Heh heh... Get it? "Virtual"? Virtual Strangers? I crack myself right up! (See? This is what happens when the kids are home. The jokes are so much worse!) having images in their heads about me doing "exciting" things.

So forget that. Here: Kusha Kusha.

Anyway. The long story made short version (yep, that's what you did, honey, made a long story short, uh huh) is this: I'll be away from my computer till Monday.

But then I'll be back, Girl will be in school and I'll surely have some fun stories to tell.

And some news about some exciting things.

No, seriously. The real kind of exciting. Not just like Kusha Kusha Scarf exciting.

The folks over at humor-blogs wish they could knit a Kusha Kusha, don't they?
