Tuckered Out


C following big sister S through the maze

Hi, A.

After a very active day with S and C today ...breakfast out, a scavenger hunt in a corn maze, pumpkin patches, and painting pumpkins (at a different farm/our second stop--thereby creating a new tradition for C and S) as our adventure; followed by making homemade lemonade (with the lemons left over from making a batch of limoncello with J); then scrap booking with S while C napped; then making homemade croutons for our salad for dinner...I am pooped. I got stuck in traffic on the way home (what normally takes just under an hour took and hour and 45 minutes) and I still have to get my ducks in a row so I'm short on time to write. Suffice it to say for now that I had a blast. The kids are so precious and we had so much fun--both when we were out and about and when they were wearing aprons and being my little sous chefs.

Sunday night dinner, which turned into a party of a sort, is a story in and of itself and I can't wait to write more about that too.

No school for my students tomorrow, but a professional day for me. Frankly, I am tempted to call out. I am gearing up for a killer period, and I overdrew an account that will charge ridiculous fees if I don't get there tomorrow ASAP to deposit some money. Even if I call in late, I could get to the bank as soon as it opens. (We don't start until 8. I could get there 9ish.) (God I hate when I do sh*t like this!)

Hope you had a good weekend, too--all the fun stuff sans the accounting errors, that is.

Love, Barb
