burned out

on babies. and that sucks.

all i can think about is kindergarten cop with arnold schwarzenegger (don't harass my spelling) when arnie asks his female co-star why she wasn't a teacher anymore and she said that she began to hate teaching so much that she worried she would never want kids of her own. so she joined the police force.

am i destined to be the new officer hegland? dear god.

so, i work and work and work. sixty hours this week - six days, and on sunday i ran the nursery and kids' church. it's completely my own passive fault.

the first two weeks of december the twins are going on vacation to hawaii. i think that i'll take one, too. though i have the cash for my NZ plane ticket it looks as though i won't be able to go till next fall, which is fine by me, because then it will be spring-turning-to-summer over there. come december, i'm leaving the continental US!

i'm thinking... hawaii? youth hostel? sunshine and alcohol and reading and ocean? yes and yes and yes and yes. yes! if not hawaii, then somewhere european. i enjoyed the netherlands, and i never explored england outside of london. fourteen days! no babies! the options are limitless!

Hopefully your 14 day baby break will be enough to restore your love for the little ones. I'd hate to miss out on Mini-Missis.

Hows about after we get our ghibli videos in the mail, you come over for dinner and a movie? We'll have 12 to choose from!
