stealing away a few minutes to write
I’ve been so busy. Although we took (some of) Friday to recover from Vegas, it just didn’t seem like enough time to rest before being thrown back into it all. Vegas was fantastic, by the way. We loved being treated like royalty at the MGM, loved staying up late, late every night and sleeping in every morning. We loved spending some fun, alone time together too.
Now that we’re back, we’re back to life full swing. There’s my usual cooking and cleaning that I’m perpetually behind on. And of course Tangle. It’s doing so fantastic, I’ve barely had a chance to eat my lunch while I’m working. This week we’re busy finishing up some of the last minute decorations for our Grand Opening on Saturday which I’m really excited about.
Jim has been working his ass off in our little office at home. I think he enjoys being there rather than at his big office on Main Street and I know that Honor loves being home with him rather than spending every day with me at the yarn store. He’s also had the opportunity to play a few times with a local band that’s a pretty big deal around here. I haven’t gotten to see him yet, but hopefully next time.
Eden has been reading like crazy. I’m amazed at her progress. She even reads better than some of the 2nd graders in her combined class. (Not that we’re comparing, but I guess we actually are!) She spends a lot of her free time writing poems and trying to play school with her brother.
Honor got a surprise from my Uncle yesterday, a pet, miniature lobster. He was beside himself with excitement and he and Jim were setting up a fish bowl for his new pet when I left for work today. Other than that, Honor is taking well to being 5 and has been really enjoyable for the most part.
Now I must return to my ultra fabulous, crazy life. Someday soon, I hope I can return to my blogging ways.
