a mini-break

Today Mama-Llama takes La Princesita and the Young Prince on a little road trip. We'll be back on Monday. The Boss is just needing a break.

There is a lot coming up in the next couple of months. The annual Easter Egg Hunt--to do it or not to do it, that IS the question of the moment. Spring Break for the young ones--but The Queen continues to receive her students throughout the week. La Princesita's T-ball team has 18, count them, 18 GAMES starting the first weekend of April, twice a week. My accident case (which occurred two years ago this past week) is, in fact, going to hearing on the 11 April, so my insurance company is flying me down and back for that. Earlier that week I have a dinner banquet to attend that I fear will go way past my bedtime. I probably won't be able to eat anything on the menu, anyway, so maybe I'll just skip the banquet part.

And those are just the Big Activites.

I think I will drive down the Scenic Route today and hit a Cracker Barrel for breakfast. That is always a hit with the kids. Then avoid all the traffic on the freeway, as there could easily be a Mass Exodus of people fleeing the general Region for Spring Vacation. My sources tell me that gas is more than 15 cents a gallon less out that way, too...

I will not stray far; the royal Laptop accompanies me in my quest, but I also plan to do a bit of business while there. Too bad I can't write the trip off...!

Have a wonderful Weekend!
