Weird Week
It's such a strange week, here floating between Christmas and New Year's, and those in turn bookended by school. We didn't do anything of note yesterday, which is, of itself, noteworthy considering the run we had up to Christmas and over Christmas. It's been a long time since there weren't errands and projects and activities. Yesterday, there was none of that. The kids played, mostly dramatic play with their critters but none of the new toys, and I either played, watched, or cooked lunch and dinner. Relaxing and restorative for all, I think. Today and tomorrow are much of the same, with a few added social opportunities, including a playdate and New Year's Eve Noon party. But neither takes extensive preparation compared to Christmas and so we'll get to play more. Then Mama is off on Friday and we'll have a family day here at the house before heading into the city, into the snow, to do family Christmas with Ma, Gong, and Goo, which includes the sights around town. And then Monday is school, the holiday over, 2010 in full swing. Which is almost unfathomable, on a variety of levels.

Friday seed the start of a new decade, on reflection it will probably be my last. Time to consider in detail where I went right and where I went wrong, then decide what to do to enhance the good and diminish the bad, finally get it all together and use Saturday as the start of the downhill run to get all tidy and progressing towards a laughing, happy end, be it one year or ten. So before I go please send me a few of those wedding pictures.
