The Week Ahead
Sun Oct 29 2006

Hubby left this morning, so I had to do some fast thinking about how to keep the kids from each others throats while I worked this afternoon.

I finally came upon a fantastic idea, let one of the twins loose on the mall.

Yep, you read that correctly. I bribed... I mean convinced #1 that it would be a good opportunity for him to apply for jobs at any of the stores in the mall that interested him, and more importantly a chance for him to possibly meet some cute girls.

I caught him hook, line and sinker with the "cute girls" bait.

I worked from noon to 4, and #1 applied at a couple stores, played some video games, bought himself some candy and a poster with the Sports Illustrated swimsuit models, and flirted with numerous teenaged girls. He had a BLAST!

I think I may dangle that bait in front of #2 if I have to work next Sunday. Hubby will have to work that day, so I will need to do the same thing I did today at that time.

I work again Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Fortunately it is early in the day so I don't have to worry about the kids after school.
