Memorial Day Weekend usually means the first big tournament of the season for Emmett and this weekend is no exception. So driving down to Twin Creeks on Saturday for two games - second game at 8:30pm (WTF?). Stay at hotel, two games on Sunday, EM spends the night with Emmett if they make it to Monday's games. JZ goes solo with Matilda Saturday night and might go see her Mom then.
Self feeding: Matilda refuses sippy cups. She likes to drink out of a real glass. She does like using the spoon but she's generally getting about half of it on her clothes. But she does seem to have that thing where she wants to do what the big people do. (Emmett did not have that thing and would be still happily crapping in diapers and sucking on a binky if we hadn't removed those options. Emmett is about easy and immediate gratification.)
I am in such denial about my meeting with Big Boss this afternoon, I can't even tell you. I don't wanna!
After our initial meeting with the principal yesterday, it looks like Leif will go to the third grade summer school to see how it goes. He's a tricky kid to place.
Here's a story about answering a cell phone. [link]
I'll be working most of the weekend and attending a cookout on Monday.
I'm going to do a bit of decorating and finishing up two more chapters for the new book. Should be sending it to Agent Kate in a few weeks, and then we'll find out whether I have another sale or not. My nails are bitten down to the nub.
I just went to an all you can eat Indian/Thai lunch buffet. I am practically stoned on starchy/spicy Indian food. And the naan, my god the naan! I can barely find the muscle tension to type.
Also, I weighed myself this morning and I have lost 10 lbs! Hooray for diets working!
Ball games! Right! It's my niece's first tournament of the season, too, so there will be as many as six games in Stockton this weekend. I suppose I should go to one, at least. Still, Stockton. ::sigh::
Still, Stockton. ::sigh::
Yeah, why they all gotta be out in nowheresville, man!
