First Day of Kindergarten
Aug. 10th, 2016 11:36 amWow, its come to that. Seriously. FIRST DAY OF KINDERGARTEN!!!!
Oof, last night we were all tired. Ben had had an exciting day due the rain and a power outage at Sioux's house. He did good at martial arts but he was upset with me for getting the mail when he wanted to do it (he sat in the car 'tired') and then he wanted to play outside when I had dinner ready and it went down hill from there. I sat down and read to calm down after he was in bed and then when mel was home I got going on sorting Ben's laundry and culling the old clothes out of it.
Then I sat down and did this:
I had seen some tutorials on Pinterest and used some of my calligraphy background to make art. I haven't used chalk in years and I have missed it. The slate isn't great though and if it had been a real one I think it would have been better. But i did it. And then I enjoyed the olympics and went to bed kinda early for me.
We got up this AM, got school stuff set and went to joe's for breakfast. Then it was to the school and we got to go across the "red carpet" into school which was fun. I stayed until after flag and went to the "Boo-hoo/Yahoo!" parent mixer. Got to meet another mom in Ben's class so that was good. Ben did well and I think he really liked the slower start to the morning and being able to run around like crazy on the big playground.
All good. Now its work etc and I hope he has a good day. I have knit night where I will work on my first afterthought heel and that should be exciting if I have the brain power....if not I will work on my scarf of doom.
