PIANO PRACTICE

Now that Mimi goes to full day school, piano on Mondays, gymnastic practice on Tuesdays and Fridays, it really cuts into her "social life". All of her friends are quite busy also with soccer, dance and gymnastic practices. So yesterday when I talked with Janet to set up a playdate with Erin, we made it for today and I completely forgot that this afternoon Maddie comes over for Mimi's weekly piano practice. Mimi is 6 years old and Maddie is 7 years old but oh man can she play sooooo good. However Maddie is such a gentle soul that when they get together it is Mimi who takes charge of how the lesson should go. Now and then I have to remind Mimi that although Maddie is her friend, she (Maddie) is in charge of how the lesson should go. All in all the lessons go pretty good cuz according to Mimi, Maddie is awsome or so I have been told on several occassions.

MOVING DAY

Yesterday morning was the big day. All. The movers came and loaded up
the truck and took the stuff to their new place but not before
stopping at our house first to drop off our newly aquired refrigerator
and freezer. Not only did we get the appliances but all the food too.
Spent the whole getting our garage straightened out. About 95% of the
food came from grandma's house and there is more food (non-perishable)
in the back of my SUV.
