Tim and I have had a deep contemplative conversation over the many days and weeks Eli has off from school and all we come up with is...how many days does he really go to school? And, I don't remember having so many days off. Yep, that's as contemplative as it gets.
In the past month we've had two half days, one teacher learning day and are now in our second non-consecutive week off (thank God it's not back to back). And oh yeah, we've got to rework our schedules and find a babysitter when we can so we can actually do some work, cause when you're five you do need some attention. Although I'm sure Eli wouldn't mind watching the Pokemon video from the library at least three times in a row.
I'm holed up at Chocolate Cafe in Wallingford, on the free wireless due to a meeting that was canceled, but I didn't know. Its such a great cafe, good music and just loud enough so I can tune in for a few versus, and then tune out and focus on chronologically going through my multiple days of unanswered email in search of perhaps a cancellation email.
I decided I would simply sip my tea and enjoy the mostly quiet and all about me aesthetics for a couple hours before I head back to the house with Tim in his office, Eli and the babysitter in the sun room and me downstairs with on a client call in another hour.
Ah, life of the home based gal...in search of the perfect moment.
