Christina and I went to the park and played catch and I even went on the swings. The rest of the day was dedicated to the Harry Potter game. Sadly, the glasses and table runner I ordered for tomorrow were delayed and will not arrive in time. I’m so disappointed. Also I’m nervous about tomorrow’s…

Lazy day today. Highlights include: Running the wrong training program on the treadmill, knitting for hours, everyone but me playing Portal Knights, booking hotels for dance and a campsite for spring break, and writing one paragraph in the sermon I may never deliver but feel compelled to write anyway. It hasn’t been the most exciting…

About five minutes after I took this photo, everything went to shit. Robin got sick, we ended up missing cheer practice, and everyone got upset. I think things are on the mend, but ugh.
-
I went for a 4.5-mile bike ride around the neighborhood today, but more impressively, I repaired my bike before going, without any help. The brake line had come loose and the handlebars were misaligned. God knows how the kids have been riding this thing. I realized the front wheel was also loose since it wobbled…

The kids were disappointed yesterday that I was seeing Wicked without them, so I took them today. They had more or less the same impressions I did. Robin says she knows what she wants to be for Halloween next year. She loved Elphaba. Seeing it the second time, knowing I would not get to see…

Went with Lauren and Monica to see Wicked on opening night. I was extremely disappointed to find at the end that it is a two-part movie. I don’t appreciate finding that out after I’ve spent the money and time on the film. I thought it was good, though. It’s sticking with me. It was visually…

I spent an hour knitting and only finished two rows. I spent more time undoing what I’d done than actually doing anything. I have so little time to work on this; it’s so frustrating when I have stupid setbacks like this. At least I got something done, anyway!

The kids looked through some of the jewelry Mom made and picked out a few things to keep tonight. I wish Mom had been the one to give it to them herself. I think it would have made her so happy.

I signed up for two 5k races today, which is pretty gutsy because I can’t even run half a k without dying. Also the Thanksgiving race next week starts before 7am, which is absolutely insane. But I think I will feel good about myself for starting the day with a race – my first one…

Billy got a jury summons today, the first one since moving to Florida almost 14 years ago. I guess we’re not as under the radar as we thought.
-
It was a perfect day for Robin’s Tampa showcase. I forgot how chaotic it is, though. She had a couple drops that left her feeling upset, but Billy reminded her that it’s how you recover from it that matters. That perked her up. I appreciate that he was also in a competitive sport and is…

First cheer trip of the new season.

I was on a call at work yesterday with someone who is grieving the loss of her husband and having a hard time. I don’t know if prayer shawls really mean anything or if it’s insulting to even imply they could make anything better at all. I still haven’t opened cards people sent me when…

The kids learned what a VCR is today. It took a few minutes, but they also figured out how to tune my clock radio, which my dad gave me in 1990, to their favorite station. Kids are so entertaining.

Today was so exhausting. Back to back meetings all day with all kinds of nonsense, and then all the endless driving that comes on Wednesdays. Bedtime can’t come fast enough.
