I'm sitting at work, watching "Henry Poole is here". Sunday nights at work aren't always the most exciting. So I have to find things to do to fill up the 12 hours of work. I finished reading my book today and so now I have to wait who knows how long until the next one in the series comes out. I love a series but I am not always the most patient person when it comes to waiting for a story to continue.
My kids left on Friday to visit family in Mesa for 2 months. They drove down with their Dad to Mesquite and are driving the rest of the way with Grandma and Grandpa Holt tomorrow. They were so excited to be going, they love to be with his family. I am grateful that they have so many people in their lives who love them.
Yesterday I went and saw the movie UP with my family. Since its a new movie I won't give away any of it. It was good. There were a lot of great one liners in it that my family and I have enjoyed quoting to each other. I did cry a couple of times. Which surprised me, but its still a great movie and is everything that you would expect from Pixar.
With my kids gone there is always a loneliness that I can't fill. I find my self missing people that normally I don't. Someone who lives far away on a little island, Someone who went away for the weekend, People who you are planning reunions with, People who use to be one way and are now another, People who are married and now have different lives. There seems to be an ebb and flow to friendships. I think as we phase through our lives there are the Friends that either pass with the phases or stick it out and are there for it all. And of course there is always family. They don't have a choice, they are always suppose to love and accept you.
Like I said, this is a blog about nothing. Alida says that my blogs about nothing are always interesting so this is for Alida. I hope that my nothing can be interesting for you.
Now its time for me to go put a needle in some poor patients arm.

Denae, we are SOOOO getting together once a week while your kids are gone. You need a friend to hang out with and so do I!!! And I agree with Alida about your posts about "nothing." They are often the most interesting because your train of thoughts don't follow a particular pattern. I like the randomness of them. Keep it up!
When works for you to get together again? I have Wednesday mornings from 10-1 without my kids, so we should do something then, if you can. Text me and let me know, or I'll text you. Agreed?
hahahah!! LOL I just have to say that when I saw the title to this post on the side of my blog because I thought to myself...oooooo I love Denae's posts about nothing. Too Funny! :)
So, you could maybe come visit me....if you want....i'd love to see you!
