Adventure Days

Friday night the kids and I explored the foreign land of "The Mall". They needed coats. I know, I know - other parents warned me that coats mysteriously disappear and you have to replace them, but I was not mentally prepared to replace Super N's coat, which disappeared a few weeks ago. I've been making him check lost and found everyday and finally caved in when we had ice on the ground on Friday morning. Fortunately everything is on sale AND we found something for each kid. In fact, in both cases we got the very last coat in his and her respective size at more than 50% off. That's "all win" in my book.

Saturday was "Mommy has spontaneously planned an adventure and thereby probably sabotaged putting away a ton Christmas Decorations" day. Yay. I even lured F from the computer and the work he brought home.( Touring San Francisco )

Sunday dawned bright and I whirl-winded through the house, pulling down Christmas decor and cleaning like a woman on crack. ( Sunday adventures )

Brief Embroidery update: I've worked another 8 hrs into my silk/gold piece in the last week. It creeps closer to completion. Very ... slowly...
