Today was a lovely day spent with my sister. We both slept in quite late, then got ourselves ready to do some running around. First, we went over to ADI and played with the 3 litters of puppies that are there, including 3 teeny, tiny pups just born via c-section two days ago.
We then went by the library where I picked up Storm Glass, by Maria V. Snyder, the last week's EW, and Perelandra, which I'll be reading for class. I also returned a book that I thought I returned, but Seth found it in my car after I filed a "claim returned" at the library. Oh, well.
Then, we had a great time at the park. We moseyed around a bit, then I had a great 1/2 hour run while my sister moseyed on her own. We both stood in the lake for a while, then got b.o.g.o. burritos for dinner. Ahhhh, good day.
Tonight was the kick-off for Big Time, our yearly, week-long party for the junior high students at church. Last year, I was a small group leader, but I decided to pass on that this year. I don't like corralling and having to discipline more and keep students in line, which is why it bothers me so much when my high school girls are overly-wacky. So, this year, I'm working in registration, which is a breeze. I sit in the back office with some of my favorite students while they put kids' info into the database & make nametags. I, then, have the fabulous job of cutting the nametags out and putting them into lanyards. It's a rough job.
Of course, I also got to help put garbage bags over all the chairs in the sanctuary, since many of the kids were going to be quite wet and/or dirty from the insane games they were playing.
I'm going to keep trying to just borrow EW from the library and not subscribe again. I just love magazines. I did, in fact, subscribe to Rolling Stone since I got an offer of 6 months for $1. I don't necessarily care to read about music that much, but my love for magazines will carry me through. I also got a free subscription to Christianity Today, which I have also had on and off over the past few years.
Ah, magazines. Such an excellent way to have little snippets of entertainment when I need it.
Hasta mañana.
