bits and pieces

Just banished the children to the basement to watch tv.  It's so peaceful and quiet up here now.  Why don't I do this more often?

Two has plans to make dinner for us tomorrow night.  He has put together a list for a buffet.  Included are crackers, vegetables, "frut", apple sauce, and meat.

Three's instrument is wide opened tonight.  Do you know this phrase?  I learned it from a friend who was in acting class, and this was a way to, I suppose, get in touch with one's feelings while acting.  Anyway, we use it (probably wrong) when we are close to tears.  And that is my Three tonight.  Lots of things are making him sad - songs, a video, not being able to start watching a full-length movie now (at 7:45 pm).

One had an EPIC birthday party the other night, which is worthy of its own post.  Let's just say that I have discovered Laser Tag and I looooooove it.  If I were 20 years younger and it were an olympic sport, I'd drop everything and dedicate my life to laser tag.  I still might.  Dudes.  I ranked 7th out of 31 in my second game.  I rocked.

Three is now a puddle on the floor and needs to go to bed.  Frankly, I do too.  I am achy and tired and ready to go lay down.
