Spring Break 2010 for Caroline and Ariel

[puppetmaker]

Ariel had class Monday so we didn’t do the Passover Seder until last night when she could be home. It was interesting because Caroline was old enough to read the four questions (Ariel sang them in Hebrew) this year. Caroline had a whole bunch of questions that we answered as we went. She understands that the last supper (or last dinner as she called it) was a Passover Seder and that the ritual has not changed since Jesus did it. She wanted to make sure she was the wise child. We had a fresh kosher turkey for dinner and it was much better than the last couple of turkeys we have had so that might be the way to go for good turkey.

So now I have a couple of things that MUST BE DONE before I am off on Friday to the Froud Workshop. I think I am going to do one today and one tomorrow, although one may have to slide into next week. Which I feel bad about but I have only so many hours and so long that I can stand these days with minimal pain. I am heartened that I do not have to take pain killers/anti-inflammatory medication around the clock. Now I tend to have to take something in the evening before bed, which is a far cry from where I was a week ago.

Our ground is so saturated that we had a bit of a back up from the septic tank. It sorted itself out but I had to clean and bleach the washer which is in the basement. Knock wood, but so far I don’t see any other problems. The lawn feels like a sponge when you walk on it. Rumor has it that the bright shiny light is going to return this afternoon. I hope so. We need some drying out time here.

I am grateful for the rain even with all the problems it is causing.

It's supposed to be sunny and in the 60s here the next few days. Yay, spring!

That is such an adorable story.

I am so glad Caroline learned so much from the event!

The bright shiny light is supposed to return and heat us up for the week. My concern is that I wanted to fertilize the lawn, but I'm not sure if it will work if the ground is too saturated. I need some drying from the large glowing ball in the sky.
