I was *so* planning to have more of this paper done by now. I may be getting there though, at last. I am envious of the people sitting outside, under my window (shared garden space). It's 16 Celsius here. I am not good with the translations. It's warm and sunny, anyway. I may give up attempting to write and go outside soon.

How old is Isaac? I wish him many many happies!

Happy Birthday, Isaac!

Happy Birthday, Isaac!

Hey, Hec, is Matilda still pretty wee? I have some 2T Summer dresses and things that I think she'd love.

Yeah, Steph, I've been taking expired claritin so far this spring, and it's fine, but I'm (a) not anticipating finishing the pack before next spring and (b) annoyed that they're selling old meds!

annoyed that they're selling old meds!

My ipod that has not been working for 3-4 days is now working. I guess it just needed a break.

We just Ethiopian for lunch and are now getting ice cream, a delayed birthday meal for mac. Plus he got more presents today- it is good to be 8.

Yeah, she'd still fit into 2T. That would be lovely to have some more of Olivia's stylish hand me downs.

Age 8 was probably my last good year, come to think about it.

I just saw my first butterfly of the year, which is pretty quick work when you consider there hasn't been a whole lot of good weather for a caterpillar to grow up and get its wings in!

So we may be getting a dog. Ack.
