Freakishly busy....
Jun. 5th, 2013 08:06 amLast week I was kind of lamenting that things were a bit slow at work. Yeah, now I'm slammed. That is okay though. Better busy than bored.
I spent the weekend tired though and traveling up and back to Kingdom Collegium didn't help. But eh. Collegium was good and looked pretty well attended from our view. I had fun at classes. Benton played with his daddy a lot and I taught documentation. Our only sad was that none of the folks we wanted to give awards to were there. But that is okay. We have the B&B's to help us out as our representatives so I know they will be given their awards. We had dinner at Niro's Gyros after we figured out IKEA closes the resturant at 7pm and we arrived at 710pm. We did pick up things for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ickaimp to paint. We headed home after that and were very, very tired. 15 hours since we left the house we were home...long day. Sunday we all slept in. Benton was asleep until about 9am. Though he didn't fall asleep on the way home right away and probably wasn't asleep until just after Casa Grande/Picacho. I lazed around a lot on Sunday reading. I had finished #14 and started #15 Iron Kissed by Patricia Briggs. I think I actually read this before but can't find a record for it. Sighs. But that is okay, its been long enough that I needed to re-read things anyway. I will finish up that series and then move on to the next stuff in the piles.
I did read quite a bit of Castle Fan fic on Ao3. Hit a good one.Alexander and Jane which is an Alternate History but follows cannon pretty well. Other than that I've been working on the blankie for Pirogi #2 and attempting to start a hat for mel.
Last night I picked up Ben from daycare and we hit the grocery store. He was really helpful putting the bags of veggies that I was picking up and putting them in the cart. When we were at the check out he was fascinated (like always) with the balloons. He exclaimed "Spiderman!" and pointed to a Spiderman balloon and then said "Happy Birthday" which was what that balloon said. It was the only balloon in that bundle that said Happy Birthday and then he pointed to another set of ballons with only one with Happy Birthday and stated it again. He's got shape recognition for words, at least specific ones. I was blown away. Seriously blown away. We then got home and had a good dinner and had a bath and off to bed after reading Katy No-pocket.
msgolda arrived a short time later (after I'd finished dishes and picking up the front room of detritus. We chatted up on various topics for hours and it was nice. Then when mel came home from Fighter practice we were up doing court planning (mwhuhahahah!!!) and then it was to bed very late.
I'm hoping to hit the gym tonight and then knit night. It will depend on how late my 4pm meeting goes. I hope not too long. Though I will probably not be able to meet Janelle. Oh, well. But I will go. My eating habits have gotten back to good and my pants are starting to fit better but I'm loosing muscle definition after a month or so off. (stoopid sick) but we shall persevere!
