Home.

The kids and I got home last night.

I'm working today, so there's little time to post. Little time to unpack. But it's good to be home.

We had an uneventful trip home. Lots of movies in the car - thank goodness for a power converter for the laptop. That's a lifesaver.

I decided to go to the reunion. Sent my check in - so now that I've spent the money, I'm going. Discovered a myspace page for our class... and have had fun seeing pictures of a few of my old friends. Funny how old they all look. Well, except for one friend - she looks fabulous. But she was a dancer, so that doesn't count. Dancers have that lithe thing going for them. I always wanted to be lithe.

I've got more pictures to post from our week in Astoria... maybe I'll get them up tomorrow... too busy today with work and a show opening for an artist friend tonight... that'll be nice. I'll do anything for free appetizers.

Cheers, friends. Have a lovely weekend.

    Glad you are home safe and sound.
    It does always seem like a lot of work to get things back to normal after a trip!

    How fun that your class reunion has a Myspace page so you can be prepared :0)
    My 20th reunion is only two years from now. I went to the tenth, not sure if I'll go to the 20th.

Phlumpyschlumpy.

Good morning, peeps. It's Friday. There's frost outside this morning. *FROST!* This week has been ridiculously chilly. I'm having mixed feelings about blogging lately. Mostly because I feel like all I've been doing is whine about being tired. Or overwhelmed. And because comments are lacking. And because I can't seem to think about anything to write about except Tejan. And because some of the thoughts I'm having are too private for the blog - or too repetitive. Or too unformed to turn into actual words you all could understand. So I'm struggling a bit. And yet, I'm committed to documenting the process I'm in. So I'll keep writing when the words come. And when they don't, like this morning, when I looked at that intimidating blinking cursor and my mind went blank and I started to break out in a cold sweat and began by talking about the weather... well, then, I'll just gracefully (or not so gracefully) back out of the room... tail between m...

Missoula Children's Theater

Last week Savannah and Ethan were both cast in their school's Missoula Children's Theater production of Red Riding Hood. Savannah was cast as Mother Hood and the Grandmother, and Ethan was Robin Hood - the Hood family's cousin from England. After five days of intense rehearsing, (four and a half hours every day after school) they were ready for two shows on Saturday afternoon. It was so fun for them. And fun for me, as I was one of two parent volunteers with the privilege of being at every rehearsal. I come from my own childhood experience of many opportunities with theater and musicals, so watching them experience the thrill of performing was awesome. It was an amazing week. I'm so glad they had the chance to do it. I loved that instead of having to commit to weeks and weeks of rehearsals, they just had to do this one really intense week. A full scale musical production without a month of rehearsing and I didn't have to sew any costumes! That's my kind of pla...
