We made our own version of the video game Mario Kart. Take your own mode of transportation and race down the driveway and back. Kate gets a 9 second headstart and if you get hit with a ball or a frisbee you must dismount and do push-ups.
WELL I WOULD INCLUDE THE PHOTO BUT IT SEEMS THAT GOOGLE/BLOGGER IS NO LONGER ACCEPTING .NEF FILES. (NIKON)
Reilly wants to know what we do when he goes to bed. I told him it's the most fun we have all day... okay, not really but I showed him these photographs. I'm pretty sure he's confused b/c he wanted to know where the tank was and why Daddy was wearing a swim mask on the moon.
Ahhhhh.... no.... but this morning I put a shirt on to go running Reilly very innocently said, "it looks like there is another baby in there." Thanks Reilly... I need you to read the book about how to win friends and influence people! Okay, maybe we'll save that until you know how to read.
A day that I had been dreading for quite some time. I wondered if today would be the day I would lose my job in the planned workforce reduction at work. I knew if I was fortunate to miss the cycle of layoffs I was bound to lose working with some dear friends. Today was not my day to leave Sun, but it was one of my best friends day among other very dear friends that I have spent the last decade with. Being laid off is one of those things I would not wish on my worst enemy. It's terrible in so many ways and on so many levels including being the ones left behind. Peculiar how that is, but it is. It is inevitable my day will come given how things are going but I really like my job and my coworkers, so I'm thankful that today was not "my day."
