OT - (sort of) and an day that turned out better than I thoughtit would
Ok, as of Thursday night, I was already dreading Friday - kindergarten was
cancelled (-10 F at 6 AM and a large number of frostbite cases yesterday across the school district) and I had to drive DS to school at 7 AM with "puppet theater" he'd gotten elected to build for a Geography/English project. I woke up yesterday and checked the school closings list, I was filled with fear! No school at all and that meant all the errands I was going to do while DD was at kindergarten wouldn't happen. But DS isn't doing too bad at watching her (with a quick finger for my cell phone number), so I could get the bare minimum done; the birthday present for Saturday's party and some milk. Oh Mom, since I have "extra" time now, can you get some material (stash checked previously to make puppet) for the curtains and a drape. Ok - balance the extra points for finish work against him and her home for the extra 30-40 minutes. Well they survived and I managed to only spend $5 dollars on the fabric and get a quick browse of the needlework section. Ok - now, does he take the easy way out and just cut the fabric and pin it place - NOOOOO, he wants it sewn. So I spent yesterday afternoon troubleshooting the sewing machine after he jams it. BUT - he sewed all the "hems" and pocket for the rod (actually twine). ----- Later, we drove out to Durham NH - DD had a chance to skate at a Lady Wildcats game and meet some of the players. Even the opposing team cheered them on. Nice night! Cheryl |
