Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

sara, sending every possible good vibe.

I almost accidentally put my major as "Liveral Arts". Which would be awesome if I were applying for a job with Hannibal Lecter.

Or something about stabling and saddling horses.

I volunteer to be Ginger's proxy smacker. With great joy.

Why is it being such a Monday today?

Plumbing is next door. You damn betcha I'm pouring myself a drink.

Oh universe, please be gentle with everyone here.

I have finished Grace's troop's bridging ceremony. I have one or two more major work obligations then I am over done.

And game! Holy crap. I don't know how I'm supposed to calm down after that.

11:45, I have running water where it should be. AND a functioning interior cutoff valve. That is designed not to seize.

And now I should go fetch all my stuff from Anna's.

I'm sorry so many have had one of THOSE days.

Fantastic, sara!!! Water. In the right places.

For the rest, may tomorrow be better.

We had a fundraiser night at a local bar and grill. The team got 20% of all food and booze. I don't have our numbers yet but the place was busy all night and I know a fair amount of booze was consumed. I contributed on that front. It was beautiful outside, so I spent most of the night on the patio, greeting folks as they showed up.

Grades are in. Six weeks ago CJ had 1 A, 1 C, 1 D, and 4 Fs. Yeah, suckage. That was about when he started on the Adderall. He ended up with 1 A, 2 Cs (including the class he was going to retake over summer school and now I can get a refund), 2 Ds, and 2 Fs. Both the Fs are in classes he had already chosen to retake next year (he could take a different class to satisfy the credit but he wants to prove to himself he can do it). It is hard to say I'm happy with those grades, but I can say I'm happy with the improvement and I have a lot of hope for next year being less of a struggle.
