You will continue to freak out, but it will be fine.
Yes, exactly.
I whacked my ankle riding today and I think I should have iced it right away. Ow! Ice (er...frozen artichokes) on it now.
This must be what going mad feels like.

Hey lisah, what's your schedule like next weekend and then the one after that? I figure cleaning, window coverings, maybe painting or not depending on what the seller did and minor moving (stuff I want to transport myself) next. My other Lisa has volunteered her minivan and arms and husband, so may not need that much help. The next weekend is her kids' school fundraiser, so I don't get them then. If I do the main move over that weekend, I'm gonna need someone to be the other me as I a) move cats b) tend to cats c) supervise movers. I'll also as T's parents for help if I need it. And hey, reminds me, I can also ask MY NEW NEIGHBORS as well as other Lisa's friends from today. (The female half of the couple was Lisa's intern 4 years ago and was hired here in the last year.)
All tentative right now.

ugh I'm super booked up--I have big yardsale next weekend then I'm going up to Wilmington for my mom's birthday. The weekend after that is our big show and Bob is in town. There may be a weeknight where I could help out. Let's email! I wish I was available to help more.

No big. Once I get the keys, I'll send you my schedule and we'll work out something. And like I noted, I've got other options. Just figured I'd ask. I've always been other Lisa's babysitter for the fundraiser and I hate punting on that, but it just won't work this year.

Does that mean Kings aired last night?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I hope not -- I hope the one that was scheduled for tonight will be next Saturday.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
No, the next new one will be next Saturday.

Coding and Sleeping
The kids had a great Easter, there was the big Egg hunt, there was candy galore, and probably the best was playing with their cousins. The girl cousins 16, 16, 9, 9, 6 and 6 and the boy cousins 5 and 3.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
When did they move Kings? I could have sworn it was tonight and then next Saturday. I should just season pass it, instead of taking it one night at a time.
I need to find the recipe for the vegetable stock I last used. It just helped me make some kick-ass pasta sauce. I don't normally put stock in the quick stuff, but I was cooking the pasta in the same pot, so I needed extra liquids, so I cracked open the frozen stuff.
So if anyone remembers seeing a recipe for vegetable stock using roasted vegetables, please holler. The stuff is better than most chicken stock I've made.

there was the big Egg hunt
Oh, I neglected to mention that the families at University Village decided to do an egg hunt yesterday. On our baseball fields. When we had scheduled practices.
It didn't affect my team since we had the third practice of the day, but apparently the first team was tromping all over pastel colored eggs in their cleats. Kind of an easter egg massacre.
