to paraphrase Cheers...

"Parents: we do more by 9AM than most people do all day."

"... and this is a selling point to you?"


To wit: it is 9:10am. I have been up since 5:45. Helped four little guys get up and get dressed, broke down 'camp', helped supervise breakfast, a science demo on cryogenics, a reflection/prayer meeting, a run through the Nortel Networks maze, and camp closing. Now we're back home and it's time to get breakfast for my other kid and then take him to ballet.

Off we go!

Met sugarkane_59 two days ago, haven't been on lj long enough to even say hi since.

So neat, but strange, meeting someone from lj. Putting a face and voice to the words. I'd love to do it again, though. [L - I do hope you take up my open invitation whenever the parents are shopping in town :)]

And it was neat to be able to discuss L&O and fanfic in real-time too, even though we didn't do that a lot. Got some of the nicest comments ever on Pretty Picture, and decided to go back and track down a bunch of stories that I hadn't read - whenever I get some time on the bloody machine, that is. I realized I really haven't read much fanfic in... oh... months, actually. Also: found out we had something in common wrt one author (no, not on lj). sugarkane_59, I went back and read, and um, yeah. So very true. I think I'd deliberately forgotten ;)



So. Off to bed. I've heard wonderful things about sleep, and I'd like to see if they're true.
