Meg played hooky from her class tonight in order to be here for Open House at the Kindergarten Center. As it turned out, we all went (Ryan and me included) just to see Robin's class and have Meg meet the teacher. It was pretty much a madhouse! Mr. Pickard told Meg that Robin is "quiet but not shy". Huh? Robin? Quiet???
After the open house, we took the kids to McD's for supper--the McD's with the play place. It echoes in there, and some female child was shrieking at the top of her lungs, just for fun. It was enough to drive me bonkers!
I am finishing up my first full week back to work after the extended summer due to circumstances beyond my control. I am tired, for sure...but, as I have said before, I don't think I am any worse off than I was pre-surgery...except that I am a few months older. Makes a difference, I'm sure!
I haven't written my thank you notes yet--to the people to whom I owe so much gratitude for all they did for me and my family during my illness. I need to set housework aside and do that! I was on prayer chains all over the place. People brought food. People watched the grandchildren (and my dog) so Meg could be with me in Illinois. People came to see me, both in the hospital and at home--babysat with me, actually. Sent flowers. Sent cards. Cleaned my house. Shampooed my carpets. Mowed my lawn. Sent money! Where do I start saying "thank you" for all of that????
Can't go to bed until the last load of laundry is dry and folded. We couldn't find a clean shirt for the little guy this morning. He doesn't have too many clothes to begin with, and I didn't get much laundry done last weekend. Down to the dregs! We meed to make a shopping excursion this weekend because the seasons are changing--starting with Goodwill!
Both Meg and Robbie have colds. Meg has felt pretty lousy the last two days, but she keeps on going. We all do! Hope I don't catch this...
I'm looking forward to a cooler weekend. Maybe I can work on my garage again????
