Well, it's been a busy day and gratefully, I don't have to leave the house again.



First, DD outgrew her most recent "nice top", in a record 6 weeks. And all her bottoms now have holes in the knees. And well, no "nicer" shoes. And we are expected at my folks for family dinner at a nice restaurant Sunday. Found a shirt she liked Friday night, but no shoes and no slacks, jeans, what have you.



So this AM, we were at the mall at 9:55 and waiting at Old Navy at 9:59. Power shopped for jeans (only place we can find a pair that fits and she likes and the dark ones will pass for slacks.)



Next stop is the discount shoe store - one pair a slip on's with a small wedge.


Run home, because it was the day of her first lacrosse game - with an hour plus ride out to UNH at Durham. And it was raining - sometimes misty, some times a steady rain.



So, here I am, shopped out, damp and tired but quite proud of DD. She and her team mates had a great game and won.

Ain't it good to be a MOM??

I just got through a phone call to the Ale House in Orange Park, nr Jax, setting up a LUNCH .I hope it works out with a merger of Jim's and my families. The nicer faction of his I have to say.

Tell Elise all her Mom's friends are proud of her...we may have to make her the RCTN mascot!

Sounds exhausting, but what we do for love.

Congraluate her on her win, have a nice relaxing dinner tomorrow and just veg out.

You have to make yourself enjoy days like these and they will make for fond memories when she's all grown up.

Sounds nice.

She'd be so embarrassed. Which is good for you sometimes.

The shopping was worse than the standing in the rain.

Relaxing - with my Dad???? And no liquor for me....

I will. And I need to buy one of those huge "golf" umbrellas. The folding lawn/camp chairs we have.

Suddenly I feel tired lol Hope you feel more rested this a.m. Congrats to E.

It's a day later and I'm still tired.

But the chocolate rabbits are out and I made biscuits this AM. And since my hand seems finally have stopped cracking, maybe I'll stitch for a bit.
