Man, hat's off to single parents...

OK so I have been picking up my little guy the past few days and I have also been dealing with my oldest at the same time too on some of those days as well. Well Last night was one of those days...

So I figure OK I have both kids I am picking them up late got to get something quick right? McDonalds it is. So anyway I go to the one near the house so the food will be hot when he get there the boys are behaving well so all is good. Right up until the idiot in the gigantic SUV it in front of us. The McD's is one of those drive throughs that have two ordering lanes and well this moron of a human being is stopped infront of both flippin lanes! I mean sure it was busy and the line up didn't allow her to move right away but that is not the time to reorganize you change in your ashtray you are in a fast food drive through pay attention and friggen move when you have room to do so. A friggen eternity goes by while she fucks about in her SUV, which by the way she chould barely see over the steering wheel. Anyway I finally get home and serve the kids their meals and it wasn't too bad of an evening with the two of them but dang I really wish I could hide from the two of them for a few moments. I just want time to go to the bathroom in peace ya know? Nothing quite like going to the bathroom when you have some one banging on the door asking me what I am doing or simply wailing because they can't get through the door. Tough! The door was created by adult for a reason kids figure it out...

Anyway I totally tip my hat to anyone who has to do the parenting thing on their own. It's a tough gig when you have a substitute to fill in for you but when you are both offence and defence with no players witing on the bench to fill in that's a tough gig. I mena my mom did it on her own for a bit but I was the youngest and I was 10 at that time so we were pretty self sufficient.

Anyway I am out once more
