The Weekend

I forgot to say earlier that Thursday my friend took me for coffee and donuts and a nice visit to celebrate turning my manuscript over to some other people. She also gave me a bracelet! She was raised to mark milestones with a nice little celebration and it's been wonderful to share this tradition with her. 

I realized Friday that I've been teaching the Gorgias to someone born in Athens--who has never read Plato. Amazing. 

Friday night we took the kids to the next city for a kids' symphony. Q mostly read, though he liked the part where they showed off each of the instruments with a cool song. Blaze liked it a lot. I almost fell asleep (Friday night). 

Saturday was delightfully low key--the library book sale, watching an away basketball game (sadly a loss), walking to mass, finishing the Princess Bride, reading to the boys. 



Who is going to come take our tree down? 

Why is food so expensive?! It hits me the hardest when it comes to candy--I feel too much guilt to buy as much as I'd like to eat.
