Staying Busy
Today was pretty much just solid wall-to-wall work. Oh, there were times when I managed to step outside for a moment to harvest a ripe tomato, and of course schoolwork, but for the most part I was either writing code or (more) dealing with clients.
The bites from this weekend continue to torment me. I made a 4AM run to WalMart for some Benadryl and Calamine, and that helped a bit, but I’m not enjoying this. Kids are all clearing up pretty well though.
In the evening, Dana, Darby, Adam and Lindsey were all off to karate again. I fed the other kids hot dogs and strawberries; they invented the “hotburger,” sliced dogs on a hamburger bun, and enjoyed their innovation immensely.
Phone calls continued right up until bedtime, which was somewhat later than usual because we waited for the karate contingent to get home. Undoubtedly they’ll start up early in the morning again too.
