Reprieve over

Leave a reply

Tom got up early again–7:20 AM. I am on watch now. Fortunately, he really loves the computer game he got yesterday, and is happily playing it now. This means Mia can sleep some more. All too often he insists that she get up in the morning–having Daddy is not good enough.

To do today —

  1. Buy about 30 $0.23 stamps–need to mail the hardcopy edition of colgaffneyis Newsletter.
  2. Go to Health Club–exercise.
  3. Computer network testing (on the home LAN)–more about that another time.

There are probably other things as well, but I am not yet sufficiently awake to remember them.

Quiet Weekend

The big accomplishment was getting to the Health Club twice, after being away for longer than I care to think about. Managed 1/2 hour on the exercise bike both times, followed by some weight work.

Also spent some time at Kinko’s, photocopying parts of a couple books I had obtained by Interlibrary Loan, of possible interest to members of colgaffneyis. Continue reading →

Weekend apart

mia_mcdavid is going to the Chicago suburbs for Windycon. Back when we lived in Chicagoland we went to every Windycon from 1978 (Mia’s first con!) through 1997, but we have not been back since we moved to Minnesota. And this time it is just Mia. The logistics for both of us going are far more complicated and less secure than for just one. Also, there are thing I want to do here, such as resting.

The weather is really nice today, which is another reason to stay behind. I got in a bike ride this afternoon, but the real payoff is for Tom. This is a respite weekend for us–he will be away. We had two options for this, and he going to the one that has more outdoors activities, and that he likes better. However, this was only possible because I will be able to take him there and pick him up on Sunday.
