Making the Most of a Friday
Today my alarm did not go off, but thankfully I woke up on my own at 7:15. I got in the shower and made coffee, put in the laundry and welcomed my daycare baby. From 8-9:30 I proofread my work for my company and made corrections, did more laundry and then my son, daycare baby and I met my daughter and granddaughter for a morning at Disney on Ice in the city. We rode the train and got there in plenty of time to get the girls a fun light and find our seats, which were fantastic and only two rows off the ice.
The kids all enjoyed the show, which I agree was good, but not their best. The fall productions are always better. We got to see my niece and great nephew there and a few friends. When the program was over, the little ones even got to go close to the ice and see the characters, wave and high five.
We cut it close getting home and heading right back out to our class at Chelonia Ecoadventures. We were ten minutes late, but they hadn't started yet, so Dakota didn't miss anything. They learned about dolphins today and the care they get, all done by play acting. The little girl who was the dolphin did a particularly awesome job!
When we got home, I did some chores and finally got everything off my old computer and set it back to the original factory condition. The good thing about that was that the WiFi had stopped working months ago and it had gotten very slow, but after resetting it, the WiFi worked again and it was quite speedy!
For dinner I made the younger son a homemade chocolate chip waffle, his request, and the older son and I had spaghetti, per his request. My husband was working "trouble" work today for BGE (Baltimore Gas and Electric) after our ice storm up north on Wednesday.
I finally settled down for the evening with my computer and of course, way too soon, my eyes are gritty and tired. The opening ceremonies for the Olympics are on and we watched them as a family, but now that the USA has gone through the parade, I think I'll tape the rest and head into bed.
