taking a trip…

So, I am going to Ohio on Friday. My friend Laura is getting married on Friday in Lima, Ohio. I had adjusted to the idea that I wasn’t going to be there. The idea of Coop in a car for 6+ hours one way, was not enjoyable, not to mention that we are pretty much broke.
I was very sad, pretty much whenever I thought about it. Laura is one of the friends from HS days that has stuck with me, I love her to death.

Well, last week B decides that he is absolutely cool with looking after Cooper without me for the weekend. Even though it will/could be hellish without me at bedtime to nurse him (although the bedtime eat has dwindled substantially). I was shocked, and happy…
Two of our friends are heading down on Friday from Toronto so I am going to try to hitch a ride.. The one "friend" is someone I haven’t spoken to for YEARS, he is BFF’s with my brothers ex and apparently isn’t too fond of me because of who I am a sister too.. So apparently he wasn’t too happy that I was invited to tag along.. It may be a very uncomfortable ride, or it may just be fine.. He is gay, and kinda a whiny bitch so I hope that things smooth over once we start chatting, like old times. Because we honestly got along before, but he is so moody that I just don’t know.. 

Anywhoooo.. I am going on a road trip, with out Cooper, with out B.. ALL ALONE OMG! WTF?! OMG! BBQ! OMG!!!!1! This is.. big. HUGE. I am excited, scared, nervous, excited. I can’t wait to see the look on Laura’s face, she has NO idea that I am coming.. She will, die. I am sure.

I am going to try to pump while I am gone(probably more for comfort), but I will be okay if this is the end of our breastfeeding adventure.. I am proud of where we have made it, and I just hope the kiddo is good for B..

I can almost smell the temporary freedom.. It smells exciting, albeit sad.. but exciting.. I am nervous about bedtime for Cooper and Brandon.. because I am going to be gone, which means NO BOOB! I am sure, sure it will be fine..

I am getting a ride to Toronto to meet up with my ride on Friday AM, with Brandon’s uncle John.. He drives truck and is letting me tag along.. Should be interesting! And then I am going to meet my brother for coffee and he is going to transport (via subway) where ever I need to go to meet my ride..

I hope it’s fun, I hope that Laura is surprised, and i hope it doesn’t make me anymore broke then I already am!

Have a good weekend ladies, I promise pictures when I return.. 😀
