The Sound of Silence

Yup, the kiddos started school today. Here's what I did to celebrate:
1. Took a long, hot, uninterrupted shower.
2. Volunteered at the school and helped the Kindergartners get through the lunch line.
3. Tried, but failed, to secure any skein of glow-in-the-dark yarn.
4. Got the wrong size ribbon for a pair of booties I made.
5. Picked up a few quilting magazines and a new book.
6. Had a margarita at lunch, and no, this was not the cause of the wrong ribbon.
7. Tried to nap but got interrupted by my DH calling to see if I was OK (Yes, dear, just sleeping off a margarita).
8. Crocheted 2 Koala heads for an afghan for a friend's baby- due in Nov., so I have time. 6 more heads to go.
9. Let the dog out.
10. Let the dog in.
11. Let the dog out.
12. Let the dog in.
Repeated 11 & 12 several more times. He was looking for the kiddos.
13. Waited at the bus stop for DD to get home. Was there an hour in the sweltering TX heat.
14. And since it was the first day of school, DH took us all out for dinner. It's a family tradition.

And what do I have for tomorrow?
1. A 1 1/2 hour massage.
2. Repeat #2 above.
3. Lunch with a friend- without kids.
