The Twisted-Sister Olympics

 Last night Peter’s sister Grace and brother in law Don arrived for a visit. It was good to see them again. I loved Grace’s red poke-a-dot dress. They all went out for supper and the big girls used the water slide at the hotel. I stayed home with Pip who had passed out asleep at 5:30 pm from exhaustion (she’d had a sleep over in Mist’s room with her sisters and cousin the night before). I had intended to work on my class but passed out by 8 pm myself. The pace, oh the pace–I’m running on empty. 

I am so thrilled at my self though, I requested to my prof that he cut out 2 assignments because they take away from the big assignment: Literature review–he listened! He announced in class today that he’s cutting them. I am so secretly proud of myself. Also, the prof was a  lot of help organising my thesis. We managed to cut down my idea into something manageable and exciting. I am doing my hypertextual digital fiction project. Miranda made a suggestion about me patenting the rights to developing my idea. So, depending on my thesis outcome, I may be buying myself a patent too–teehee.

Bought the girls a kiddie pool this afternoon. I’m too freaked to get anything bigger with Pip still a tot. And Nem, Tabs and Mist bought themselves giant round super soft stuffie pets. They fought over which character each wanted. They came to a pleasant compromise–deciding to share all three, rotating houses and naming each creature together.

Gotta work tonight on the lit review. Must go to the gym early tomorrow.

Very HOT here in Kelowna. An evening swim might be nice…
