When All Else Fails, Try Chocolate

I have a post that I've been working on - the usual word-filled post to go with my picture post - that I really thought I would finally finish tonight. Everything I've considered posting since then has been saved in draft form and awaits finishing until that all-important "Look, I Traveled!" post is finished and done.

However, instead of blogging tonight, I took charged of the kids while the parents went out. It provided no end of entertainment, from chasing little people all over the house while trying to make (and not explode) a pizza, to a rather curious announcement by the three year old when told to go into the bathroom and wash his hands that he can't because "but I can't find the water!"

I was rewarded by being tired enough to fall asleep by 8:30pm (which means now, at 11pm, I should have no trouble) and this is very good when considering I have to be up between 7-7:30 tomorrow and NOT just to get kids dressed and ready for the day. I was also rewarded by the parents bringing me back a delicious slice of cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory. Now I know where to go taste-testing when I'm rich again.

And I'll leave it up to you to figure out when it was that I was rich before.
