Portrait of Pip taken by Tabs.
Big girls at piano lessons. Pip at Aunties. Peter 1/2 way across the country. My solitude is limited however. My girls arrive home soon and I will join the dinner party up the street at Miranda and John’s. My sister Theresa and her partner Joop are in town and my mom arrives later tonight. Miranda’s requested white wine but alas my cupboards are bare save a 1/2 finished bottle of Sirah. All are gathering for a weekend party and Theresa’s birthday.
My asthma is acting up thanks to that virus I had last week. I couldn’t breath yesterday. I was too tired to go to a movie even. Rented Orphan instead. I like the family’s house and the wife character. The kids are good actors too. I love movies about families with young children. Of course, the only movies about such characters are horror flicks or movies where someone’s child dies. Why??? I just want an interested drama about a real family. Not some horror or total tragedy!
Early hike/run this AM (brought inhaler). Bikrams tomorrow. Finally getting back to my early morning workouts despite the asthma flair up.
Had such a busy day yesterday. Had to bring all three girls to the hair salon with me as Mist had a late school appointment and Tabs had dance right after my appointment. Thus I could not run them up and down the mountain in time for all the appointments. However, they were good as gold–2 1/2 h in a hair salon!
Four parties in three days–the kids party will take place at my house on Saturday night. The list of food to make is incredible! I’ll be in class all day so the girls and Granny will have to manage on their own.
