Uh...hi.

Okay. I couldn't leave that post up as the last thing I said. I was really only cranky for the one day. In fact, everything worked out just as well as it could have. Josh and I are going out tonight on a date, and I can still go to see Annie with Julie on Sunday after the meeting.

The kids have been with Mom since Tuesday evening, and I hear they are having a wonderful time. They even went fishing. (I'm not jealous, I'm not jealous, I'm not jealous....much.) I've largely been lonely, but I also did a lot of taiko PR stuff, and did some shopping for Grant and even tried to do the temp service thing, but they were mysteriously not available both times I stopped by. Today, I had intended to check out a book from the library, read furiously all day, hopefully finish the book and start on the one Helena lent me. But I called the library this morning, and both copies of that book are checked out, currently. So I'm just kind of drifting around the house, trying not to bother Josh while he's homeworking. Well, and I proofread his paper. And I was on the phone a lot with my mom and brother for the purpose of birthday spying. Grant is not the only one with a birthday next week. Both my dad and brother have them, too. Today's spying was mostly for Dad.

I've eaten so many gummy snacks in the last 2 days, it's a wonder I haven't made myself sick. I bought milk yesterday, though, so now I can snack on breakfast cereal instead.

Yesterday was a little stressful from the taiko department. But, you know, if you just stop opening emails from certain people, it's amazing how your frustration can cool down!

So, life is good.

Tomorrow, birthday at the bouncy place. Then, meeting and Annie on Sunday. Monday is Dad's birthday. Maybe I should make a cake while Mom is here and send it home with her? Hmm. Lots of people to buy presents for. I love buying presents. Wish I were independently wealthy. Although being dependently wealthy might not be so bad, either.

Well, I hope you are about to have a super fun weekend! It's a shame no good movies are out. If you are bored, though, you could always come out with us tonight!!!

Happy Friday!
