There are times in life you sometimes just have to wine in order to avoid the whine.  Tonight is one of those nights.  We are headed out to a wine dinner.  I am looking forward to it more than I could even imagine because I know I have a weekend chockerblock full of kids activities. 

Most weekends are usually full of kids activities but this one seems to be stuffed to the brim.  This weekend has 1 swim practice, hours of dance practice and four hockey games flowing all onto the floor.  I like busy but this is crazy! 

So tomorrow morning when I have to get up at 6:30 to take Claire to swim, and then to dance and then go to the boys two hockey games, I will savor my memories of the wine dinner because I got to do something just for me.  Now, to be clear, I may be a little fuzzy at 6:30 tomorrow but I will still feel pretty damn good that Stan and I got to squeak in a little date together with two of our favorite couples as we prepare for the activities ahead. 

Tonight I wine so I don’t whine for the weekend and I can do all of the crazy, whirlwind, out of this world, fun activities for the love of my children…
