Spend some time to yourself<br />Stage-manage getting your boy away to college<br />See to your treatments<br />Fulfil the other million requirements of being a mom<br />Reorganise your pre-K room ready for the start of term<br />Keep blogging<br />Take on a new weekend commitment as co-host for TToT<br /><br />and you had, what, a coupla months?<br /><br />Yeah, no, I can't see how you failed to keep up, either.
