last night i went to kita-q to have dinner (and a drink, or three) with kuri, rachel and K. we ended up at a turkish restaurant (which was fabulous, by the way!) for dinner, then went to a bar for a few drinks. there were some friends of kuri's in the bar so our group turned into a noisy party! i had to leave a bit early because i had to catch the train and the bus. it was nice to get out of the house without the kids!
in the morning i had gone to coin laundry to dry clothes. the weather has been so nasty, and we have so much laundry that the dryer in the bathroom doesn't cut it. *sigh* i got back at ten and then yoshi got ready for one of his bonenkai. he took tommy with him, so sasha, hiro and i went to lunch, then a park to play. it was really cold, but the sun was shining, so the kids had a good time.
in the afternoon, we all vegged in the house. tommy took a nap, but sasha did not, so when i left the house, she threw a fit. lots and lots of crying. i left anyway, and when i got to the bus stop, i had missed the bus by a few minutes. we don't know the bus schedule, since we don't take it often. instead of waiting 55 minutes for the next bus, i started walking to the next bus stop. then the next, and the next. i figure i walked about two kilometers until the bus 'caught up' with me. that was one way to keep warm!
yoshi has to work this morning, and then i have to brave the stores to get christmas shopping done. wish me luck!

My three year old sounds a bit like yours! I have no idea how to deal with the outbursts somedays (and no time or energy to deal with it either!)
Hope you all have a lovely Christmas and New Year.
I love how we all shared our 'escape' stories when we got to the restaurant! Yours takes the cake, but all of us totally agreed that yes, we would not go back home either in those circumstances!
I got back to Nakatsu, went to another bar, got in trouble with K because my phone was out of touch in that bar and he called, finally lost my wallet...at least the first half of the night was super!
