end hiatus
April 16, 2007
The nice thing about being a grown up without a job is that sometimes you can just decide not to do something. Like not post things for awhile. Because sometimes it’s good just to do the living without the recaps.
And so.
A few things have happened in the interim. Thing One continued with the wrestling, all the way to the state championship. She took 4th — not bad after a season total of just 9 matches and two tournaments. I’m happy because those nasty stinky shoes can finally air out for a good long while. Thing Two has been quietly bopping along in school, doing well. Apparently doing weller than we knew: her math teacher pulled her aside and told her that she’ll skip a grade and move into Algebra 1 in the fall.
This is what makes parenting such a wild ride. Wrestling and Algebra? Where did those genes come from? Guess I should have had longer conversations with the UPS man…
What I’ve really been doing with my time is puttering in the garden. We’re up to about a dozen fruit trees now. Maybe this year we’ll even get some before the squirrels!
