I trust you all had good a good Mother's Day. Mine was spent out in the yard digging in soil and planting flowers all the while dodging attacks from a certain orange striped kitty. For some reason he thinks a wee bit of foliage hides his 17 pound frame--yeah, not so much. But it does make me laugh.
After a day in the warm sunshine, we ate, showered, and headed off to the CYSO (Chicago Youth Symphony Orchestra) with friends for the evening. One of our friends is in the orchestra this year, which always lends to the excitement. It's amazing how lovely those kids play and how very talented they are. Mix the lovely music, the good friends and the fact that my family was together--it was one great day.
May continues is packed calendar as we brought Colin and a garage full of stuff home on Friday. We don't have a basement, so this meant that Saturday was spent washing, sorting, and making notes on what we have and what we will need for the fall. The family room was Sorting Central, and while I wanted to scream, the cats were having a hey-day--they love all that turmoil.
Today starts Mom & Col Go To Work Together, Joe and my 24th wedding anniversary, plus a flute lesson thrown in for good measure. Well....at least I'm not bored.
