where, oh, where
September 10th, 2008
Big things have been afoot recently.
Was last week the short week? It certainly seemed so.
Every second of our lives these past weeks have been scheduled. Wednesday was the first of the September concert series in Memorial Park (aka “Avenue Park”). Friday was a date night thanks to Mi Escuelita (aka Carlos’) who takes the kids on random Fridays, Saturday was a Dave Matthews concert at the Greek Theater which we ditched the kids in Marin to attend, Sunday morning was the first of our monthly brunch with the neighborhood kids. Throw in the laundry, straightening of the house, and grocery shopping, by the close of the weekend, we were exhausted. All of us. Even my laptop. In fact, the laptop was so exhausted, the hard drive died.
The week is not proving to be any less scheduled. Apple took my laptop away for 4-6 days to replace the HD. Our favorite nanny is back. We’ve switched dentists, so we’re all scheduled for cleanings this week. We bought a new mattress over the long weekend, which is coming tomorrow. Tonight is both the concert in the park and the first parent meeting at preschool. I’m responsible for snacks and clean up at the meeting, tonight, as well as plugging Escrips (for fundraising). Friday we leave to go camping. Soccer starts up again, Saturday. The Solano stroll is Sunday. And to top it all off I have one more level of Labrynth on my iPhone. Just typing all of this makes me anxious.
