Yesterday I was shocked that it was Monday. Today I am more confused that it is already Tuesday. Who wants to guess how I will feel tomorrow morning? Probably nothing calming. LOL!
Wow, yesterday was non-stop for me, and I didn't even leave the house other than briefly going outside with the dogs. I found the soft, lined belly sling for Jaida in the attic by sheer luck, no less. It was hanging on a clothing rack, and I caught it from the corner of my eye. Gary and I were both saying how we had no idea where we would have put it 2 years ago. The Kong Donut we use instead of a cone is always closer to hand.
My poor girl is *very* confused that she isn't getting breakfast. She has a "toy" bowl that she carries around and throws at us when she wants to eat. She'll use that to get our attention. Today's appointment is just the X-rays and isn't until 11.45, which means she has a long morning ahead of her.
I spent much of the morning on my field trip prep and Scott brought over his beaver educational supplies. He built the coolest diorama of a lodge/dam/ecosystem for his beaver programs. He was showing me all of the details, down to the fact that they don't eat the wood of a tree-- instead, he glued tiny wood chips at the base of the felled trees. One of the dead "trees" has woodpecker holes to show how their habitat helps other animals. I am really excited to share this with the kids. He also has a chunk of wood that was taken from a tree and the kids can look at the teeth marks, plus he has a real beaver skull, so they can line up the teeth with the markings.
I hope that kids are as stoked about this as I am and that it all goes wonderfully.
No scrapping at all for me. This happens every year for the 12 Days Parties. I end up so far behind. I have to remind myself that the challenges are open all month, so I have time.......possibly..... to finish them at some point.
Today's links for ya!
