Happy May! I know, I said I’d see you after the afghan’s done, and it certainly isn’t, but yesterday was the 12th. You know what that means…
8:44 am – Heading out to school. A few minutes late. And we still had to go back for something. Good thing I have extra time built in with our 8:40 departure time.
1:38 pm – Bits of the aforementioned afghan. It’s coming together! (See below)
1:44 pm – Calling to schedule my first physical therapy appointment. It’s only thirteen years overdue.
4:15 pm – Homework time. Exciting spelling words.
5:08 pm – Since the boys don’t have portable gaming systems, they take books in the car. We gave Nicolas this one for his tenth birthday. The verdict: “So far, it’s good.” Goblet of Fire is hiding behind it.
5:28 pm – In the waiting room prior to Nicolas’s occupational therapy appointment. It’s a fun waiting room.
5:46 pm – Gorgeous afternoon, so I dragged Kalen out for a jaunt around the block while Nicolas was inside. Neither of us was dressed appropriately. Thankfully, it was a small block.
6:22 pm – Back inside to wait. They have an assortment of donated books in the waiting room. I’m looking forward to finishing this one on days like this when I remember my crocheting but forget the instructions. (Doh!)
6:39 pm – Winter’s over. Methinks it’s time for a pedicure. (My new flip-flops are supposed to tone my legs and rear end. That’s an awful lot to ask of these cute & comfy shoes!)
7:07 pm – Choosing to counteract whatever toning the flip-flops are doing with a little Teriyaki takeout. Num Yummy.
7:10 pm – My Mothers Day presents are getting a lot of play time in the car. Unexpected benefit: the boys are requesting Defying Gravity every time we get in, so I get to hear Chris Colfer’s glorious voice over and over.
7:51 pm – The afghan! There’s another row on it as of this morning. Several more to go.
12 of 12 is Chad‘s baby, and 2010 is the last year for it! *sniff* Go check out other 12ers here.

Oh we have the tone ups here, but I only remember seeing the trainer (sneaker) forms. I did wonder if they’d work!
Yay for afghan progress and take out! Mmm.
