Today is Mom's birthday. She celebrated it by canning lots of tomatoes. I did not help at all with any of the canning process. I did pick eighty more tomatoes and heaped them up with the rest of them. Woohoo! S was very disappointed in the lack of a party and a cake. We promised him we would have a cake this weekend. Z told us she would like a babydoll for her grandmother's birthday. I would like a million dollars.
J brought the kids with him to orientation since I was there in a professional capacity. They both warmed up and were having such a good time, they didn't want to leave. That's good. I am cautiously optimistic about the first day, tomorrow. I have to get up at 5:30 in the morning so I better cut this short and go to bed.
But before I do, I would like to share one more photo with you. S has become obsessed with the show, 'Wipeout'... We watched it last night and they have been "building" obstacle courses ever since. We watched it with them. We never watch TV with them. But we did last night. We couldn't help ourselves. We laughed like hyenas. I'm afraid we've gone over the edge now.

Is Wipeout the show based on the hilarious Japanese game show? Man, I used to see clips from that show in the wee hours of the morning and laugh my ass off.
Well, not literally. But it was still pretty funny. I anticipate many obstacle-course inflicted injuries in your near future. :eek:
Here's hoping they're all the benign type.
I'm up! I'm up! It's 5:30 am and I. Am. Up.
It's IS going to be a challenge. Impaling on a broom is my biggest fear.
5:30? JESUS. That shit's uncivilized.
Well. The dawn can be special. I hear. No. Really. It is.
What a fun obstacle course! And I want to can tomatoes on my 65th birthday! I have ten years to learn to really grow some damn tomatoes!
I just crossed you in blogland. I'm blogging to much tonight but I have my reasons. How was the first day? I adore that tomato picture. It goes with the music somehow.
SB -Uncivilized is right. But, in all honestly, I've felt really good all day. Almost like a real boy.
Ms. Moon - My mom is great. She's doing 65 up right. And she ad my dad love to can food. It's really sweet & a little odd.
Nana's Lady - It was a nearly perfect day and I'm bursting with pride. We nailed it. Crossed?
