I remember the days when I had two kids and had people over for dinner all the time and always had such a clean house. I thought I was a rock star. Little did I know that adding two more to the mix changed everything for me and now, if you come over for dinner, you're lucky if you get food.

Every mother has a touch of Superwoman in her, I do believe. Hope you have a good time tonight. An evening with friends is well deserved.

I hear ya!

But was it worth it? Hopefully you pumped a bit so you could have some of that booze you had to pick up!

Sometimes I say that the only time I finally get EVERYTHING done is when we've invited people over and I have the motivation to do the things that I tend to ignore day to day.
Hope your dinner was fabulous!
