dyk that happy new year is of course sung to the tune that the restaurants use when they sing the happy happy birthday.... happy happy birthday to you song....
dyk so Happy New year!
dyk it's 11:00pm here but we celebrate as the ball drops on NYC!
one of my coworkers and I were talking about the crazy cold and how we don't understand how people live up North but I guess you don't see how we do the hot summers.
dyk Abi had her first day of homeschool co-op and she had 3 classes
dyk it took her about 20 minutes to get into the first class, she hid face down curled in a ball in her chair, then sat up but wouldn't face front, then listened over her shoulder
dyk but then after the story was over, it was time to do the craft that went with it and I suggest she sit by the other two girls, and Sean and I managed to get out of the classroom and then about 5 minutes later she hadn't once glanced toward the door
dyk so we left altogether
dyk and that was that - she has new friends, new teachers and she said at lunch time, Hurry up Daddy! We have to get back to school!
dyk drive faster Daddy before she changes her mind! haha
dyk we got a magnetic dry erase board from Target today as well and hung it up in Abi's place of choice
dyk we also went to the teacher supply store and got magnetic math equations addition and subtraction with numbers 1-20 and they are great - they were expensive, but I have been searching out something kinesthetic for math and learning to read
dyk we also got a cool red apple timer that it seems they have already broken - we've been home an HOUR
dyk and I found a girl that does horseback riding lessons for $15 an hour - which means I can get Dek twice as many as the other place we were going to take him to
dyk well, as far as the anniversary cruise is going...I have no idea how this is going to pan out.
dyk Aaron just called the house (after trying me FIVE times while I was out running, geesh!) and asked me if he could surprise me for our anniversary instead of us planning it together.
dyk I hate surprises?
dyk but I gave in.
dyk all I know is that we leave March 3rd and return home on the 12th.

DYK I moved to NY from NC.
Bare legs were not acceptable in the south
dyk and in some places, they still aren't.
dyk The last engineering firm I worked at, they weren't allowed.
dyk This firm is a little bit smaller and since my boss has bare legs, I don't wear hose.
