    I had a pretty good day. I finished up my sermon for next weekend and I think it’s pretty good. We went shopping for beds for the girls. Robin ended up getting a nice 7-piece bedroom set for $800, which was a real steal. We went out for dinner, I played with Legos, and we…

    Spring break has officially kicked off and I am READY. I have so many plans, I don’t think a week will be enough. For now, I rest. The best is yet to come.

    Sometimes you just gotta go outside and climb a tree.

    I re-watched Apollo 13 after admiring the beautiful crescent moon tonight. Our universe is incredible. From atoms to galaxies and everything in between. And pizza. Do not forget pizza.

    I’m trying to pause and experience my day more, rather than just trying to survive it. These azaleas helped. I always forget we have them. This year they exploded and demanded our attention. I’m glad they did.

    Late nights alone after long days. Not so bad.

    We had a really great day that ended with 30 minutes of yuck that kind of tainted it. Got a lot done – cleaned up the house, weeded the garden, went to the Game Haus and played Sorry and Scattergories, got ice cream, went food shopping, and had tacos for dinner in front of the…

    These girls came out of the tunnel after their performance in tears. Their coach yelled at them and told them it was the worst tumbling she’d ever seen. And then they won first place in their division. And THEN they won grand champions of their whole level. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

    I tried to steal time where I could get it today with marginal success. It might be time for more drastic measures. Whatever they are.

    Man, was I cranky today. I only spent ten minutes with my feet in the grass, but it might have been the best ten minutes of my day. Gotta try to make tomorrow better.

    My days kind of slip by before I know what’s happened. Suddenly it’s 10:30pm and I don’t know what I’ve accomplished. I want to do more things I enjoy, but I don’t know what to put aside to make it happen. So we have strawberries on a Wednesday evening.

    I didn’t get to have the chorus season I’d hoped for, but I am so grateful for what I am getting to do. It’s not terribly challenging music, but it’s music and it’s with other people and it’s fun. Very thankful.

    It was a pretty typical day, with the bonus of talking to a friend I don’t talk to enough. I laughed a lot. Maybe too much. And stayed up too late. But it was good.

    A day off! I know I should have gone to the beach or done some sewing, but instead I sat around. Sue me. But Christina and I did make this Marge bird for her school project. She created the species and here it is in Lego form. Pretty spot on, if I say so myself.

    Robin’s team got second place (out of five) today!! I am so excited for her and her teammates. This is the best she has ever done in cheer, and between this and their bid to Worlds, I couldn’t be any prouder. Congratulations, Robin!
