Today

Well, it wasn’t quite the day that I had planned.

The kids were supposed to come up, I’d meet Mahsa and Amin,  have dinner and we were going to do the gender reveal with a DQ Cake. Poor little Amin and big Kyle are laid a bit low with some of the flu/cold going around, so that was cancelled. I put the lasagna in the freeer and  Craig was not disappointed to not have to share the pulled pork. 

This cake is a work of unrevealed art, which will keep in the freezer until next weekend when were are planning a do-over.

The ladies at work who are in on the secret have done an excellent job of not letting the cat out of the bag; they’ll have to keep stumm a few days longer!

After that, it was just a succession of annoying and disappointing bits that conspired to fuck with my day. 

But the laundry got done and we met up with my Poke-buddy Jess for Community Day. Most definitely successful and we had a great time!!

One of the shiny Dratinis became a green Dragonite (which I have renamed Puff), and I have a nice little herd of normal Dragonites. I am now Mother of Dragons!!

Tonight Craig and I feasted on the pulled pork and a glass of wine is making the wait between the 4-man bobsled runs more bearable. We are cheering on all of the Canadian sleds, but especially the Poloniato crew, of which my cousin Josh Kirkpatrick is a member! 

I need to find my fluting an d knitting mojo - these things have fallen a bit by the wayside over the last couple weeks. I have tomorrow off as well, and as today was Errand Day, tomorrow will be my Rest & Wellness Day.
