Taiko Night Again

Excerpt from email: 

"So the book is not so much a comedy.  The stories are well done...but super creepy.  Better for October than February, or as I like to call it - The Ninjawinter.  It approached stealthily and attacked when we were least expecting it.

Personally, I think someone up [north] must have left a gate open or something, and a feral winter wandered into my neighborhood.  I hope someone comes to collect it soon!  I want to buy flowers!!! No one out here is selling them yet, because of the wintry conditions.  Boo."

And how are you, Friends?

It's trash day, and we forgot to set out the trashcan.  I should probably mind, but I don't seem to.

Been busy with taiko, even without playing.  A lot of it you don't want to hear about, but I have also been trying to collect photos from Celebrate the World to make an album of.  Not much luck there.  I think they are mainly going to be from one person...and largely of one person.  Also, our new and fancy website is up!  Wanna see?  Of course you do:

What do you think?  Nice, huh?  I was directly involved with nearly every photograph, and nearly every member bio on the About Us page.  It doesn't sound like much, but it took a long time.  I was also involved in the creation of the press kit, and also in giving general feedback.  Not bad for volunteer work, don't you think?

Practice tonight, but I am going to try to leave half way through, because of the photo galleries that I still need to get up for CTW.  I have been spending SO much time on stuff like this.  I think it should be allotted taiko time. 

By the way, what are you doing Saturday?  Would you like to learn what this taiko stuff is about?  If so, click here:  http://www.stltaiko.com/workshopadult.php

In a minute I must go and get ready.  I'm working at the preschool this afternoon.

Josh was home sick yesterday, but instead of taking a sick day, he just worked from home.  He made grilled cheese for dinner, too.  What a guy!  Although, he didn't find all the funny t-shirts I was shopping for as hilarious as I did.  Wait.  I promise I was busy all day yesterday.  That was just after dinner. 

Awkward.....

In other news, I made Grant his first orthodontist appointment.  It will be next week.  I'll have to let you know the verdict. 

I'm going to sign the kids up for baseball tomorrow, as well.  Summer baseball.  They should have swimming lessons, too. 

As you can see, I'm already starting to plan for the summer.  Sadly, I have not been offered so much as an interview for employment.  Should I assume that I'm staying home?  Maybe I should.  I think it will be the last year of that...

Sending happies to those who are sad!  Off I go to get ready to play with kids all afternoon.  Trying to be excited, but mostly I'm just tired.  ;P
