Workcation

I had planned on writing an entire post tonight, but after 8 hours in the air yesterday, and then a full day of tourism afterward, plus work and then some more fun tonight, I am totally wiped. I’m having a good time so far though. We’ve been to Hollywood, Santa Monica, Rodeo Drive, Sprinkles Bakery and tonight to Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles. So yeah, like I said—so worn out.
I talked to the kids when I left work tonight, and they were getting ready for bed, and I was fine talking to the big kids, but talking to the baby on the phone just tore me up. “Whatcha doing?”, she asked. I told her I missed her very much and she said :I miss you too very much, Mama. And I love you very much.” And then I fell over dead.
So, 2 days away and I miss my small people.
I did not end up pre-packing their lunches, in case you were wondering. Hub has it under control. But I did leave their clothes out.
I texted Hub, my mother and my brother tonight at a little after 8 PM. At the time it didn’t even register that they might not be awake since at home, it was after 11. Oops. Then we got lost in the Hollywood hills, so there was that. It was kind of hilarious.
This did turn in to a bit of a post after all, huh? Let’s have a few pictures for posterity.

I am so proud of you and your workcation! Did you survive the flights stuck in the middle seat with your need to pee often?

Have fun!

Look at all the people on the beach! It is in the 60s here today so that just seems odd to me. I am used to being one of the warmest places in the country! :)
