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 tumbling lesson today and started working on back handsprings. I am so proud of her. I admire her effort, and I know it’s only a matter of time until she’s handspringing all over the city. And also I finished the last of the 3 in 1 Lego set I bought last year. I seem to have lost several pieces since last year, but I managed to find what I needed in Christina’s mammoth Lego stash. A couple things were the right shape but the wrong color, but you really can’t tell. All in all, a good start to spring break. Tomorrow we paint, Wednesday we pick up furniture, Thursday the decor arrives, and Friday we finish the little projects to make it special. I can’t wait to see what it all looks like finished. I’m excited.

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 to teach my NAMI class, and I spilled my entire bottle of Diet Coke, which did nothing for my mood. But Robin and I had Legos at the end of the day, and man, that was good.
