Good morning, Barb.

I hope your week hasn't been too awful with midterms; I do remember all the correcting :(  I know it's different from a parent's perspective, but I feel like this school year is just flying by.  I hope, at least, that you are feeling a little momentum on the downward slide.

We lost our power again Tuesday night, for about 12 hours.  Fortunately, we were asleep for most it, but we did have a horrific windstorm that was loud and scary.  Since all the trees had been compromised by the ice, there was a lot of concern about what would fall during Phase Two of StormWatch 2012. Some places had much more damage than others, and some got away with nothing.  We were extremely lucky and only lost minor branches from two trees.  SA and K lost major parts of gorgeous trees, but the worst was a guy down my street who had a pretty good size pine tree come up out of the ground, roots and all, and crash about two feet from the front of his house.  Crazy.

The kids didn't have school, but my office was in a little pocket of power, so at least I wasn't cooped up in the house all day.  Anyway, enough about the weather.  We're all pretty sick of it right now.

This week has been busy, as I expected. I really liked the yoga class we took on Tuesday and I'm looking forward to going back tonight. I slept like a rock. This weekend we have the beginning of flag football, a 50th birthday party and some other stuff not that fun.  But, I did get all my new bedding, so RP is going to come over and help me start my new room. Yay!

Hoping you have a fun weekend planned and that the rest of this week goes smoothly,
A
xoxo
