Busy next few days (and weeks).<\/p>\n
Tonight’s my yellow belt test in karate. Prepared as I’m going to get, I guess. As long as I don’t do something stupid (ha!) I should be okay.<\/p>\n
Tomorrow’s a long working day for me — and it’s also Katherine’s birthday party (a week in advance), which we’re holding down at the Lone Tree Rec Center pool, complete with pizza and cake and all that. Most of the kids have RSVPed, so it should be an (exhausting) blast.<\/p>\n
Saturday is (a) go to Costco and Home Depot, (b) plant a bunch of plants, (c) finish cleaning up (to some tolerance level) the loft, (d) do some general clean-up around the house. Yes, that’s pretty much a full weekend’s agenda, right there.<\/p>\n
Sunday I’m running a game (for the first time in mutter-mutter years). Should be fun, but, oh, yeah, got some prep work I need to do somewhere in there … \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
The following week we have the end of school, Katherine’s real birthday, my parents coming to visit (which means having the new guest room in livable order), etc.<\/p>\n
