Hump Day, at Last!

Today is finally hump day for what is becoming a very long and busy week. It seems every night after work/school there's something going on, and especially for Cameron, who's been going non-stop since going back to school. He's involved in the robotics club so they have meetings until 6:45pm Mondays and Thursdays (and every Saturday from 9am-4pm until mid-March), and on Tuesdays he's gone from 6:30am to at least 9:30pm to ski club (and, in the case of last night, he had to take a shower and do his homework when he got home). Annalisse has play practice until 5pm every day, choir on Wednesday nights, and on Thursday she also has ski club.

I long for the lazy days of the break. On Monday morning the dog looked really confused as everyone was heading this way and that, trying to get out the door to school and work. I could almost hear him thinking: Hey! What's going on? Why aren't we staying in our PJs and lounging on the couch all day? Actually, he probably likes the fact that we're all back into our routine so he can get back to his very important work of sleeping on the bed all day and tormenting the cat.

On Friday we head to Holiday Valley in Ellicottville for a ski weekend that my sister-in-law, Lena, coordinated. We're looking forward to visiting a new place and Mark and the kids are excited to ski there. If you can't find me just look for the person sitting in the comfortable chair (or at one of the few available tables) reading a book and drinking (flavored!) coffee with everyone's crap piled up around her. I've got my stack of books and magazines ready to go!!
