Sacrifices…

Had to dig out a recent archive photo as I have been banned from posting any and all photos of the newest member of the Japanese group YADA. And let me tell you folks, you really are missing out.

I am triumphant as I have registered Mist and Tabs in ballet and Tabs in piano and already took Tabs to her first soccer practise of the fall. And Pip is feeling much better, although 3 upset calls today for, “tummy hurt! Popsicle!” Yes, she knows how to get 3 Popsicles a day now.

Mist really wants to join team sport so I told her to come up with one she likes and I’ll get her in one…the closest thing she could come up with was fencing. I want her to join a swim team instead because she is not a fiercely physically competitive person and she swims very fast naturally.

We shall see.

Bought a really cute knitted Beret today. The cool morning made me think of the fall.

Tabs has a B day party to attend tonight, Mist has one tomorrow and Tabs has a soccer game tomorrow. Then mist has her very first babysitting job (outside of family) for Michaela’s family–Tabs will join her and play with Michaela while Mist babysits.

Peter gets home tonight, but because he will be pooped from the trip and Mist is too busy to babysit of Sat. night, we won’t get out to a movie until Sunday. there are 2 I want to see: “Brideshead Revisited “(I loved the novel and the original movie–named my kitties Sebastian and Cordelia after the characters), and “Vicki Christina Barcelona.” “To Paint or to Make Love” turned out to be about a couple of french swingers–an education to be sure.

Seriously enjoying “A Brief History of Misogyny.” John K–good thing you are a Spartan! When all of ancient Greece was wrought with misogynists, the Spartans were an anomaly–equality amongst the sexes.

Gotta go and Paint…I know, I know…have to sacrifice the love making once in awhile.
