Just a quick note as I wait for Peter to arrive from dance(no Pete’s not a ballerina yet!) with my two oldest girls. Tonight I have prepared chicken BBQ, brown rice and Swiss-chard. And I am making brownies–they are in the oven. I had a head ache today–maybe from straining neck muscles at the gym–either way, a good brownie cure is in the works. Miranda called me for my Blondie recipe, she’d just finished the brownies for her party…and well…I just had to make some!
Mist is trying out for the basketball team–the only glitch is that games are on Modays–at the same time as ballet. What to do? Tabs is busy being Tabs–drawing wild life (her latest sketch a saber tooth tiger), practicing dance moves etc.
Had a great morning with the Pip. It started out questionable as I had to take her to the health clinic for a Chicken Pox vaccs. However, she was an angel and didn’t even cry. She picked out a Littlest Pet Shop puzzle and pet for her treat. She named the dog “Mommy.” She is the dearest little tot in the universe, that little girl of mine! Next we went shoe shopping. And…OMG…for a girl who doesn’t like to shoe shop, I was having a blast. I got incredible Fluevog boots 1/2 price!!! They were the only pair left and just happened to be my size–I adore them. I will wear them with my Breakfast @ Tiffany’s dress this Thursday. Then Pip and I went to a beautiful, sun-shiny Catina for Mexican food (the new Taco Time in Rutland)–no really, it is really nice: licenced, cork floors, big sun-windows, etc.
I tried to practice my presentation in front of a mirror–oh god–I need to jettison the dweeb angle that I’m working. I need some profession presenting tips–ya got any??? I’m worried even the Fluevogs won’t be able to save me on Saturday!
My cousin Laura is trying to get out of Thailand. I hope things calm down there and soon.
