My parents live about 40 miles north of the Mexican border. With about 20 miles to go, we passed through the border checkpoint but didn't have to stop. Cody asked me what the checkpoint was for, so I explained how if you are coming up from Mexico the border patrol wants to make sure you are not carrying back up illegal items like drugs or smuggling people. He chuckled and pointed out how we didn't have to stop going down toward Mexico so we (the U.S.) must not care what might be smuggled IN to Mexico!
So all my boys are gone this week. Jabon gets home Thursday and Friday morning I will drive down to Ajo and spend the day at my parents house. The boys and I will return that evening.
What shall I do with my lonely evenings?
Monday night: Tonight. I went shopping. Now I am just watching a movie and staring at the presents that need to be wrapped.
Tuesday night: I am getting my hair done and then going to see a movie. My sister will join me for that. We should have fun!
Wednesday night: Going to my niece's birthday party.
Somewhere in all that I want to get done a few things that are not so fun:
- Cleaning my bathroom
- Putting away the younger boys clothes
- Picking up their room
