Blogging while it's quiet...sort of.

The sun has set, the children are in bed and I sit on my couch enjoying the few hours of freedom before I sleep and start over. Yet, while I sit I still hear little feet running back and forth from his bedroom to mine. It is the challenge of the "Try to sneak into Mommy's room and fall asleep before she is aware of anything" game. A yell from above from the older sibling tattling on the younger one ensues while the bounding back to the other side of the house begins.

It is a race. Will he make it into bed before I go up and reprimand his behavior?

Of course he will, because Mommy is too tired to run up and down the stairs all night. If he does win the game and fall asleep in my room, the quiet will return and my freedom will begin once again.

Watching Disney's Cars movie...again.

Well, it's another day watching the Cars movie. Why? I have a 4 year old that LOVES the movie. What is interesting is that he doesn't sit and watch it, he races his cars while it plays. So why is this an interesting topic? It's not. It's just what I am doing right now.
What I find the most interesting is that I get all my creative ideas in the car while I'm shuttling children from place to place. The only problem with that is that I cannot type on a Blog or any other format during that time. What a dilema. I'm sure that sometime in the near future there will be a computer installed in the car so that you can do work while driving.
I mean look at cell phones. Ten years ago a cell phone was for emergencies only. That is because they weighed a ton and you had to pull over to get everything set up. Okay, maybe that was twelve years ago. Now I hardly see anyone driving without a cell phone to their ear. Maybe they should start teaching a sub-driving class of "How to drive while on the phone." But I digress...
Computers in cars. I'm sure someday we will have computers that are voice activated and you can multi-task to your heart's content. You can email, check ebay, post blogs, even shop! Wouldn't that be cool! While I'm driving I could put in an order for the groceries I need and by the time I got to the store they would be selected and bagged and just needed to be loaded into the car? Forget the car, let's just have them delivered to my front door! Now that would be great!
With a car computer, I could actually get some of my creative ideas posted somewhere so I don't forget what I thought about while in the car. Because once I step into my house, I am thrown into the daily routine of Mommyhood where I watch the movie Cars everyday.
