Fernando Doe-Doe has taken over Pip’s Tiger chair just like his predecessor Weldy Woo-Woo. What a cutie! The people at the vet’s call him “Little Man”–I find it quite appropriate.
Let me see–a crying jag on Friday due to too many things to do, not enough time and a respiratory virus that has hung on exhausting me. Recovered in time to delegate some of the chores required to throw Pip her party that starts in 2 1/2 hours. Class all day yesterday. I was so burnt afterward. it is a challenging class because it requires full on participation and concentration. Also, I feel like a chocoholic at an all you can eat chocolate buffet. I see all the potential social opportunities awaiting me in the class room and I go full out–trying to capture as many social options possible until it ends and I can go home and collapse. I’m a bit of a social junkie I think.
So, party today for the Pip. She awoke and immediately asked me, “My friends come?” Man, that kid melts my heart.
Mist made herself and her Dad eggs for breakfast. She is so cute, so competent. And the Tabs offered to give Pip a bath and wash her hair. So the two of them are in the tub now, with all the mermaids.
Tabs teacher meeting went well–Forgive me for “Mother’s brag time!”–Her teach loves her. His only concern is how to challenge her because she finishes her work in record time and has so much free time on her hands. We are thinking of a self directed study of German(her choice) or researching projects.He is also blown away by her architecture skills–apparently she creates amazing things at the back of the class with blocks etc. and he can’t believe some of her buildings.
Mist did splendid on her report card: she won an academic achievement recognition and work ethic recognition.
Pip came running into my room last night naked but covered in a blanket–I said “Oh, it’s my little nudie girl.” And she said, “No! I a ghost!” and she proceeded to race around my room with a blanket on her head, trying to scare me.
Onto me…will start my workouts again after a week of being too ill. Tomorrow morning work on project with Uni friends. Tuesday night Uni Pub night. Girls: dancing, basketball and piano. Friday I’m off to Vancouver for 3 nights in a Fairmont suite with my lover…hmm…
