And away we go

Well in a couple of hours Michael and I will be hitting the open road. Sans kids. Yeah, that's right.

Mike has tickets to see The Tragically Hip at a smallish venue in Peterborough. I guess we could have taken the kids with us and made a weekend out of it, but Abby had to sing at church yesterday and she had school today. Yes I realize it's only junior kindergarten and her entire academic career wouldn't be ruined by missing one day of puppet shows and ice cube painting, but today is "sub-day". The day she waits the entire month for.

I remember back... way, way back when I was in grade school we had hot dog day. Which was awesome, but it came around only rarely. Abby has pizza day once per week and sub day once per month. Not that I'm complaining cause my my calculations that's 5 - 6 lunches a month I don't have to make. To be honest it's not the sub that gets her really excited, it's the double chocolate cookie that comes as part of her meal. So couple sub day with the fact that Granny is coming to hold down the fort while Michael and I are off rocking out/hanging out with Dave and Mel and it's like Christmas came again.
