Childless and the Olympics....not the Young and the Restless

So I just returned from a whirlwind trip to deliver Jacob to CA for his week with is Grandparents. I have to say that at 33, jet lag is not my friend. We left Friday afternoon and caught a flight in Harrisburg and didn't get to the in-laws house until 1am....west coast time. That means I was up at this point for 22 hours straight. Jacob slept for the better part of the journey so he was well rested and up the next morning as soon as the sun came up.

Saturday we visited old friends and then a nap eluded me. Sunday I was having an Arbonne Party for my Mother-in-law, which went quite well I might add.....but then some of the family stuck around so again, no nap to catch up. Monday I took Jacob to our old hairdresser that he used to go to, to of course get the mop chopped and catch up. Then off on a plane at 6pm from Chico to a 4 hour layover in San Fran, leaving at 11pm west coast time (2am east coast) and arriving into Chicago for another 2 hour layover arriving late morning to Harrisburg. I am still recovering! It's kind of like being hung over after your turn 30....you can do it, but it kicks your ass for a few days extra. I have no idea how I used to do the red eyes after visiting Mark when we were dating and working the next morning....blah!

So, Mark and I are childless for the week.....the most exciting thing we have done has created our own version of Wii Wars, mainly tennis....yes, we are sad but we laugh the majority of the time. I have to work at the winery this weekend, so thankfully he will be making dinner. But hopefully before then, I can get some sleep.....here is where the Olympics comes in.

The last time I was watching the summer Olympics, was when Jacob was 2 months old. It really has put it in perspective how much time has flown. Plus the damn Olympics are keeping me up at night and the Internet is absolutely no help. If I knew the damn results I could fall asleep on time! Ok, so that is a random rant, but can't China release the news faster! I know they have control issues (scary place), but can't they give this poor american a break?!
