Change in plans

Generally, my Friday would look something like this. Wake up, drink coffee, get kids off to school, do some super fast house cleaning to some fun loud music, make a cup of tea, and then settle in to write. Write write write, run run run, then pick up the kids at school, and begin our weekend.

Friday was MY day.

I just, very recently, acquired this personal day. I find her lovely. Yes, it's a she.

But for now she's out the window. Another 'she' needs me.

For several reasons, none too dramatic or earth shattering, we've decided to keep Della home on Fridays.

We need more time together. She's five. She's my baby. I'm old school about most things and kindergarten is on that list. I think a half day is plenty when you're five. I understand why it's a full day, but I know it's overwhelming for a little person.

I'm very excited. We have big plans.

We're going to bake some bread and plant some seeds.

We might go to the thrift store to look for a hamster cage. We might paint our toenails. We might eat Indian for lunch. Anything is possible! (except getting any writing done, but that's OK)

Here's to a peaceful weekend!
