The girls slept in, but I got up and made my way to the nearest Starbucks. I spent most of my day there, from 9am to 4pm with only a break for lunch. The girls called me back to the hotel at 10 to bring them breakfast and take them to Noah's Ark. I dropped them off and then went back to Starbucks. I had a nice chair, free wireless and a plug for my laptop. I got in lots of reading and at least an hour of writing. I am almost done with chapter one. I plan to print it out this weekend to have the girls edit it and add input. It is about a teen-aged girl after all.
Jim surprised me with a lunch time visit on his way to Fort McCoy. We enjoyed lunch together at Wendy's and then I was back to work at Starbucks. At 4pm, I had expected just to get the girls some food, but they were tired and eager to go home, relax and have pizza for dinner. I got home in time to pick up Monika from her soccer practice. Monika is not a fast ride kid, so Noah's Ark had no attraction for her. She'd rather not miss soccer. I think she was happy to have me home early.
I was able to get in my 35th yoga class this evening and came home to left over pizza and watched a DVD-- Bandslam. Erika made fun of me for watching it when she got home from work. She told me the movie was made for 12 year olds. I LOVED IT! I'm not sure I'm much older than 13 in my head- so I guess it all makes sense.
