wow what a weekend

Saturday we had a party at my house and more people than I expected showed up so it was REALLY good... there was a LOT of food (most of it BAD for you) and a lot of talking and visiting and just jabbering about which made me happy. PLUS everyone left on time!!! Can you believe that? There were no unwelcome stragglers who stuck around till I had to kick them out, I was SO EXCITED that I got my house back four hours after the party started, so I was able to get things cleaned up and put away before the post-part fatigue kicked in around 6pm.

Sunday was a LAZY LAZY LAZY day. I started a new knitting project since I finally finished the baby blanket for bert and stephanie... it turned out SO well and I'm really pleased with it, I will try to put a picture up soon... its not what I expected, but pretty neat anyway. We did some laundry, ate left over party food, watched a couple of DVDs with the kids... it was a LAZY LAZY LAZY day... and sometimes thats ok.

My youngest sister defends her dissertation for her MFA today. I am so nervous/excited/proud/etc... for her. I know she'll be great and her advisors love her and her poetry so much that she'll have no trouble being approved for her MFA, I just wish I could be there to see it!!! (insert proud big-sister tears here)... oh and did I mention today is also her birthday? No? Yeah well, it is, she's turning 27.

A run is on deck for today, 40 minutes, and hopefully it will stop raining or it's the dreadmill for me because I didn't bring my raingear today.

cheers!
