    So excited for this weekend! We are celebrating our 20th anniversary in New York with no kids! Broadway, dinner, dessert, hotel.... I hope this weather holds up! I only feel a little guilty leaving the kids with their boring grandparents.

    Congrats on 20 years!! That is truly awesome!!! Made me smile to know there's hope for marriage still out there in the world!!! Quite the achievement indeed!! Have fun, stay safe, but most of all enjoy each other'so company.

    Thanks! It is an achievement. A few bumps along the way. The trials only make the relationship stronger when you come through them together. It's going to be nice being alone in ny again bc we did this a lot when first married and before kids. Better get my bag packed!

    Congratulations on your milestone and don't you dare feel guilty about leaving the kids with their grandparents! It is in your kids' best interests to have parents with a strong marriage so go and have a great time together.

    I wish I could look forward to my birthday as others do, rather than being resigned to it being most likely the worst day of my year :(

    Thanks to all! It was such a great weekend. I'm sad it's over. We saw Once which I of course LOVED! My husband enjoyed it too though that sort of thing is mostly for me. We ate at a tiny spanish restaurant and had delicious paella with seafood. We walked all over the city even though it was raining. It was so nice to just look after each other for a few hours. Shopping, coffee, dessert, record shop (found nothing of significant interest but we spent a long time browsing). We still have tomorrow off to cushion the blow of vacation being over and school/work insane routine returning. I'm really exhausted. I came home and the kids were all alive, fed, kitchen clean and laundry done. That was all the work of my 15 yo who whips everyone into shape. She's amazing.

    Great to hear! I think our society doesn't give teens enough credit; my 15 yo is often amazing, too (not always). In centuries past they might be married and running their own households; not that I want that for her, but when we underestimate what teens can do, when we baby them, they have no motivation to strive and there are all sorts of problems.

    And you weekend sounds great.

    How much I don't want to be living in a hotel room 5 days of the week for the next couple of months...

    You never really had to begin with.

    Work? Look at the bright side. It could be you're living out of your car.. But I know how you feel. Hotels suck. Hope everything goes ok.

    That sounds wonderful! I agree, Once was amazing! Actually, it was so good, I had to see it twice! I believe it closed yesterday (B'way cast, not touring cast), so glad you caught it while you could!

    I have an electric cat box.. So I'm sorta limited on litters, but I'm thinking of just going back to the standard box, and trying new litters. The old cat LOVED the cheapo litter, and wouldn't use the expensive stuff. It was cheap but stinky. I have to do something.. Other wise o have to rehome him. :-(
