Memorial day
Just a moment to thank all those who have helped to protect our nation.
Our veggie beds are all filled with dirt and planted with seeds and plants. OmegaDad, realizing what a tasty treat he had just set out for various varmints, is off to Lowe’s or Home Debit to get some orange construction fencing, which is reputed to scare moose. Or he may end up with moose repellant. (I never thought I’d be googling that phrase, but life is full of interesting surprises.)
This week is Ballet Recital Madness. Tuesday evening is the full run-through. Thursday is the dress rehearsal. Friday and Saturday are the performances. Luckily, the schedule is not as bad as I originally believed; someone in charge had sense enough to tell the littlies to come later.
I signed up as a backstage mommy for dress-rehearsal day. That was before I knew that it was the Longest Day. I will know better next year.
And if I ever complain about one of the dotter’s teachers, please remind me of this story and ask me whether it’s as bad as that. I am far too mellow today to take that one on, but just let me say it left me speechless.
