Anyone else out there ready to go to bed waaaaay before their kids are?

I remember when they were babies and I’d sometimes get them down as early as 7 pm so I could enjoy a nice glass of wine with my hubbie. Now it 9:32 pm and ALL THREE OF THEM including my nine-year-old are all still up.

The good old days of time outs at night, wine in hand, watching an avidly-followed TV series in real time, are long gone.

So instead, I take my time outs at the movies as often as I can. Friday, I’ll be going to see Sex and the City with a friend. My kids can veg at home, while I pretend to be a hot, big city big shot, with a big paycheck, big hair, big heels and big plans.
