Moms Night Out

Today, I had a call from a friend I haven't seen in 6 months. We agreed a month ago to go out together on the 21th, today. We haven't talk since then and I thought she was still out of town (she is a teacher and we are on Spring break).

I found something strange about moms night out : I made the resolution 2 years ago to absolutely go out with my girlfriends once a month. We all agreed that it looks like a tough resolution but it was worth making it. Without comittment, we'd never do it and months and years will pass...Since then, the results are pathetic : I just went out once, and I had to push me to. Ok it was for my birthday (why I don't like celebrating my birthday since I am over 35 ??!!) and it was freezing outside (0F). My one-year old was cranky and my hubby moody. Why did I find so many excuses instead of just going out and enjoy having fun like a (single) grown-up woman ??

Anyway, the Spanish restaurant I found was great. Ok, we got lost for 15 minutes, froze for 5 but the food was good and after that, I ended up talking with one of my friend until 2 a.m at her place (something I haven't done since I am a mom).

So 1 year and a few months after, again : Mister Son is having a bad cold, I didn't have time to check what's playing on theaters and...so well, I took my cell phone and called my friend. Guess what I told her ? "I'll be at your place at 7 and we'll have a drink before going out to a nice restaurant" ! So the pastas for the kids tonight are on their way....jeez, I forgot the pastas on the stove !!!!
