Just one big happy island-stranded family...

Glad I did. I enjoyed my visit.
Hope that Ginger had a good day in DC. I live near there myself, but with Michael... who can swing a day with him (solo) in a big city all day? Not me. Someday my hubby and I ought to go do a day in DC, taking Michael along of course. (We aren't right in DC, just sort of near it.) Have a good week!
I've been deleting them and banning their IP addressed, but they keep coming. I guess I'll just have to keep shooing them away and hope other journalers will keep tagging me...

one step back. Just when I thought Skipper was getting the hang of it, he snuck upstairs and put on some pull-ups, so that he could relax and pee in them. After all, Mama never showers him when he goes in them - they should be safe. He had been sooo good until then, holding it til he got to the potty, even in the church nursery. So, today, I had to start at square one. We'll see how tomorrow goes. By the way, I hid the pull-ups.
I was in the car a lot today. Taking Young Professor to play practice, lunch with my brother, getting Ginger in for physical therapy, back to pick everyone up. On the way, and while waiting in parking lots, Skipper had a good nap, and I got chats in with Young Mary Ann and my mom. So it wasn't so maddening.
Why is the lovely young Ginger going to physical therapy? She has a very flexible knee cap, and for some reason that causes her pain when she practices for track. An orthopedic Dr ordered the PT to strengthen her quadriceps, the thigh muscles above the knee. She goes three times a week for 4 weeks. It'll cost $240. and that's with insurance. But she really want to be on the track team, so it's worth it.
I'm wiped out. I'm going to slip under the covers with a book I forgot about a year ago: Princess Sultana's Circle. It's about the life of a royal Saudi woman. Very interesting, but also sad. I'm glad I was born into a German-Irish heritage American family! Especially since I'm a girl. It's not been perfect, but at least I was never married off to some old man when I was only 13!
