A Slow Day
12 05 2008There is little to report today. We are still waiting for our home study renewal package to come, it should arrive tomorrow.
I spent most of the day in theatre storage packing props for the move. This whole process promises to be exhausting. Right now we are packing and moving all props and costumes to a lounge adjacent to the storage area. The painters are right on our heels as we empty each room freshening everything up for the campus archivists to move in. We can’t yet move our things into our temporary space because it is not yet ready. This would only be half as frustrating if it weren’t for the fact that we will need to move everything again next summer. Boy do I hope the new building is ready!
I picked S up from school and let him play briefly with his friend, but not for long. Very chilly and damp today. S is very excited about summer vacation and he asked about vacation as we walked home. We looked on-line at Busch Gardens in Virginia since he said he was interested in the beach. He was not really thrilled with what he saw and seemed much more interested in Colonial Williamsburg. Fine by me, I’m more interested in Colonial Williamsburg too! Well, one thing let to another (as on-line time frequently does) and next thing I know J is walking in the door and I haven’t even thought about dinner yet. I had to work fast because S had his scout graduation tonight. I grabbed some frozen quesadillas, tossed them in the oven. In the fridge, plain left over white rice (I LOVE MY RICE COOKER!) and reheated it with a can of black beans from the pantry and a few seasonings. Wow, what a good really fast meal it turned out to be. It kind of blew my calorie count for the day (over by 300
) but I did more physical work today than normal and cold damp weather always cranks up my appetite. It will probably even out just fine. We finished up with enough time for homework and a little play time too.
Off to scout graduation. Which was nice, not too organized, but under an hour! Home, snack for S and bed!
Tomorrow, more mundane things, but hopefully I can get out to buy flowers for the yard. The weather man says it will be a nice day.
