    Tonight was NAMI class, and we had a pretty good class. Everyone showed up and participated, which always helps. I am grateful to have the opportunity to teach these classes, but giving up my only free night of the week is a hefty sacrifice. Still, I made a point to spend 30 minutes with my…

    I think we got a lot done today. Bought all the painting supplies and prepped both rooms for painting. Man, their walls are a nightmare. Robin’s walls are filthy and Christina’s walls are riddled with holes, one of which was almost large enough for me to fit my hand into. Also, Robin had a private…

    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.

    Billy took Christina to her dance classes today and I got the afternoon off. It was so nice not having my work day interrupted and getting to have dinner without rushing. I could get used to this.

    Probably today’s highlight was playing Exploding Kittens with Christina. Now that we understand the rules, it’s even more entertaining than we thought it was. Also, not today, but I finally got around to making the second project in our 3-in-1 pirate Lego set. It may have involved obsessively staying up until 2am to finish it.

    Robin finished this pirate ship the other day and it is really cool! This is a 3 in 1 set, so we’ll enjoy it for a few more days and then break it down to build the next one. We’ll see how that goes without the pieces being organized for us!

    It was a day of running around. Robin wanted to go to the mall with her friends, but then when we got there, she felt left out, which kind of ruined it for her, especially since she’d really been excited about it. I got home with about 15 minutes to have lunch before going out…

    Christina has her father’s temper, alright. She accidentally kicked over this Lego Hogwarts work in progress the other day and instead of trying to piece it back together, she threw it and all the rest of it into the floor, breaking it to pieces. It would have been easy to call it a total loss,…
