Friday Woe is Me........

So with every Friday comes the dilemma as a working mother to cook dinner or to get takeout? After a long week of working, dropping off and picking up the kids, homework, laundry, making lunches, making dinners, giving baths and all of the other daily drudgery ( I just looked up this word to make sure I was using it correctly) who wants to go home on Friday night and celebrate the weekend with making dinner?

I don't know about you but that is the last thing on my mind. I am thinking about popping open a bottle of wine and pouring myself a nice healthy glass while watching a family movie with the kiddos. I really don't care what we eat, I would eat cheerios for dinner on Friday night if it meant I didn't have to cook dinner.

This Friday night the decision is more difficult than usual because we are actually going out to dinner as a family with some friends on Saturday night. So..............do we spend the money on takeout to make me happy or do I suck it up and make dinner? Dinner out 2 nights in a row and then on Sunday we are going to my BFF's house for a cookout so technically that's 3 nights in a row. Can I deal with the guilt of being that lazy and crazy with our money?

After half a glass of wine I can guarantee you I will be calling our local chinese joint to order up some lo mein and won-ton soup, so much better than the chicken tenders that I had on the menu.

Sorry about no outfit pics this week. It was a bust for me in the clothing department. I really hate September for clothing options so you may have to wait until October 1 to get some more outfit pics.

Happy Friday!!!!!
