A look at how my Mind works
Apr. 10th, 2010 09:09 amBut first my sympathies and prayers for the families and friends of the miners who perished in West Virginia. They found the four missing miners so at least the families have an answer. Also my sympathies and prayers to the Polish People and the families and friends of everyone who died in that plane crash that included President Lech Kaczynski and many other leaders of the Polish people who were on their way to Russia.
It has been a heck of a week indeed.
Last night Caroline and I had a sleepover in my bed. We watched cartoons and let the cats stay with us until she was asleep. We saw the Powder Puff Girls episode ‘Meet the Beat-Alls’ and Caroline, since she has been listening to the Beatles, recognized a lot of the lyrics. She loved the ending. I didn’t explain Yoko Ono to her.
Back to my brain. I seem to have two settings that can’t go at the same time. I can be creative or I can be neat. I can’t seem to be both. For example

My Harry Potter Dragon Egg and Dragon for a Harry Potter Dragon Egg Swap.
(For the visually impaired: It is a small blue dragon with blue wings sitting in an egg which is split in two that is blue, green, and purple kind of swirly patterned)
I am late on this swap by about a week and a half. Reasons are numerous. I have been halfway done on this for a while. I buckled down Thursday and Friday to get it done since I had sunshine to dry the paper mache with on Thursday. I got it done but a lot of other little tasks that I had hoped to do didn’t get done. I noticed last night that all the tasks I weren’t getting done were all cleaning and picking up related. My craft table looks like a bomb hit it. I haven’t put away anything from the Froud workshop. Heck, all the stuff I took to LunaCon is still in the suitcase it came home in. Then there is the usual Caroline play mess to deal with along with packages that arrived and cats.
So today, part of tomorrow, and part of Monday is being given over to super cleaning (Insert echo voice here). Along with taking care of Caroline and the other stuff that does have to get done for the household to operate. Part (OK most of Sunday) is going to be taking Caroline into the city to see 101 Dalmatians, which she has wanted to see since she first saw the commercial.
Monday we have to go to the PTA meeting where she will be recognized as a citizen of the month. Tuesday Peter is back and we are going into the city for an autographing with Coheed and Cambria where Peter will be signing the book he did with Claudio. Wednesday we breathe. Thursday I do laundry and pack while Peter goes and see Ariel in her college production of Rent. Friday our cat sitter moves in and we are off to an adventure in Chicago at C2E2. Caroline plans to sell her pictures at her father’s table. We get back Sunday and then I think we hide for a couple of days from the world then Peter is off the Uruguay I believe.
I am grateful for adventures that Caroline can participate in.
