When the kids are away...

What does a woman do when her children are gone for a couple of days?
Well, there's the obvious, which consists of basking in the peace and quiet, enjoying the cleanliness and everything being (and staying) in it's place, reading an entire People magazine from cover to cover (even though she doesn't know 75% of the people in them anymore) AND doing the TWO puzzles in the back withOUT ONE interru...ption, taking bubble baths and/or actually using the toilet without someone needing to have a deep and meaningful conversation with her at that exact moment (I almost didn't include this one because St Frank is still here after all). She also enjoys 2 extra hours in the late afternoon/early evening because she is NOT cooking supper - not.one.time and she delights in the fact that the dirty clothes hamperS don't fill up to overflowing EVERY SINGLE DAY!
---> She lives the life of luxury!

But on the flip slide, this mama does miss those kiddos and misses messing with them even more!

So today to amuse myself I was forced to turn my attention to St Frank 😈
He works in Montgomery and carpools. His group meets at Walmart and those who aren't driving just leave there cars there for the day.
So what happened today was that I went to Walmart and moved his car to the other side of the parking lot. It was so much fun!!!! Then I returned at 6:00 , parked far away and waited to watch it all play out, hopeful that he'd call me before he called the police!
I soon got a call -
"Do you know where my car is?"
"Your car?"
"Yeah"
"What do you mean?"
"My car isn't here"
"Where?"
"At Walmart"
"Your car isn't there?"
"No, it's gone! Somebody stole it!"
"Somebody stole it?!"
"Yes, it's not here! Jason said he'd bring me home so we'll be there in a minute and then I'll call the police."
"Ok, bye"
"Bye"
Click
I waited a minute and then called him back.
"Where are y'all now?"
"We're at Walmart"
"ME TOO! And I FOUND YOUR CAR!"

WINNING!
