lenora_roseCute stuff:
- JoJo managed to fall asleep in the pool during his mom's baby-and-me aquacize class. And he wasn't the only one.
- We just got him a suit (well, vest and top and tie set) and shoes for his baptism, which is coming up on Mother's Day. (The shoes will do for other purposes, but it's about time he had something other than winter boots and Robeez.) And crocs so he has something to play outdoors in. They seemed easier to put on and easier for him to walk in than rubber boots.
- Our friend Tiene came by with her baby, then babysat JoJo with her two kids, then came by for Jeff's party with her baby. Oh, lord, is that little girl CUTE. She's almost up there with Joseph.
Family Stuff:
- Had a nice dinner out AND a good party for my brother's birthday (With different friends at each).
- A close family friend just had her actual birthday and is going to have a celebration Friday.
- Next up, mom and Colin. And two more (Tiene, above, and Brannie) soon after. Tis the season...
Weather Crap:
- Saturday was LOVELY. Sunday was pretty nice. So far, that's all we've had of Spring. It's back around freezing. And went from rain to snow well before sunset.
_ F*** this. We've had April and May snows often enough before, there's a reason they usually advise not to plant before Victoria Day (Mid-to-late May for non-Canucks) but most of the time, it's snowing on top of long thawed ground and the first green grass and bulbs. Prior to this last weekend, it was snowing on top of snow. (And some mud from melt, but too much snow...)
- I'll grant, you, the slow thaw is why we're less afraid than we might be of huge flooding.
Writing:
- not as much as I ought. Taking steps to improve this.
Reading:
- Getting through Shattered Pillars. Enjoying much. Started For Elise, a self published family history of a friend from church, which will require some review, I think, because it's of WAY more general interest than that first sounds like.
Augh:
- Hope I'm just run down from shopping, weather changes and too little sleep. Starting to feel like possible bug, though. Will be sleeping soon as I'm finished this note and cleaned up some hairballs (The cats have their own way of heralding Spring. Unfortunately.)
...
- Back off the pill as of Sunday night. Not sure I'm ready, not sure I'm not.
