Got kicked out of bed this morning at five by the two cutest little girls in the world!!

There was a loud and busy thunderboomer that moved through here last night and both girls ended up in our bed, first Pint at about 2, then ½ Pint at about 3. Finally at five, I gave up when I realized I was about to lose ½ Pint over the edge of the bed, and there was no way for me to move to get comfortable and go back to sleep.

Throwing one arm over Pint's body, holding onto ½ Pint with the other hand, and then with my third hand I grabbed onto DH's thigh to pull myself up.


Grumbling a bit, I got up. What the hell. The day has to start at some point anyway. This way, at least I am up.

Gonna be a long day though. Yesterday, I kept Pint home from school and we played hooky and went to the Children's Museum with my best friend and her 9 year old daughter. We had a BLAST.

Here are two pics. They are of me and the kids, and I know, **nodding** you can't tell, but they are wicked cool pics anyway. The first, we are standing against a wall, watching letters falling on a wall sized screen, which has a TV camera in it, taking film of US standing opposite. And the cool thing is when WE lift a part of our body, like a hand, the letters STOP falling and rest on the image of our body part. I don't even begin to understand the technology in all this, but it was cool as shit. And the sort of washed out black and white image is awesome!! Pint is the shorter kidlet, and I am the adult sized body in the middle.

The second pic is the two girls (the parts that look like birds at the bottom, and me in the middle. It is done with the same sort of wall screen technology, but this time with a light show. We look like we are in the middle of a kalidescope.

Baby has a Dr appt at 11, which means leaving the house by 10:15 to get there. Then, back home or at least as far as the kidlets school, to pick them up at 1:30 for counseling appt's at 2 and 3 respectively, then after counseling, zip on over to karate at 4 and work there till 8. then home to bed.

Tomorrow morning, Pint and I have to be up at 5, leave the house by 6 to drive the two hours to the Destination Imagination Competition, where we have to be at weigh in for the structure at 8:30. Our competition starts at 9:30, with the instant challenge scheduled for 10:30, then we should theoretically be able to leave Barberton by 11:30 to head home. Arriving home by 2:30 hopefully.

Pint can nap in the car on the way home. If I am lucky (and I won't be) I can nap when I get home, then leave the house by 3:00 for Karate studio because testing for the big

B L A C K B E L T

begins at four.

Pint will do a reverse round kick and an elbow smash for her board breaks. She tried them Wednesday last, and nailed them first time. She is okay on her form, and knows her self defense.

½ Pint is testing for the second half of her Purple Belt.

We have out of town company (other Nursey daughter and her Nursey Husband) coming in for the test, along with a host of in town attendees.

THEN, after the test, we get to go out for a congratulatory dinner, and then home, showers real quick and into bed, where hopefully I can get the littles to go to bed....

Then I get to sit and drink with the family LOL.

So yeah. Let me think. Will this go the way I planned?


Nope. But it's all good anyway.
