Friday was a tad busy.
Oct. 18th, 2014 02:29 pmShopping for costume components - S is making herself a Zelda outfit and making C a Link outfit for Halloween. It's a good thing H was along for this, she was brilliant at finding us parts and pieces.
Ice skating - once a month homeschool day. This time I managed to bring my camera, I might even get around to posting some pictures one of these days. C made friends everywhere he went as he is wont to do. He told me the people he met at the ice skating were now his once a month ice skating friends.
Prepping for evening events.
I took S one direction, M took C and H another.
S had a dance with the Teen/Tween Homeschool group.
H had a bonfire with her 4-H group. H spent a good deal of the time talking with one of the 4-H girls. C played with adults and kids and he told me he had so much fun he didn't want to leave. There were smores, but C ended up making a chocolate marshmallow sandwich, sans graham crackers.
S's dance was far enough away from home I had to find a place to hang out till it was over. While walking around I found a Comic Book shop open in the area. Better yet, they had a coffee bar. I didn't even catch the name of the place, just the large sign on the door that said Coffee and Comics.
Seriously: Coffee and Comics.
There was almost an entire wall of MLP comics. The girls knew this sort of thing existed, but I was floored (no one had bothered to mention it to me). I ended up buying a few things besides my coffee - an MLP shirt for H, a magic card case for M, and an MLP comic for me (though I figured H could borrow it if she wants).
S danced for about 3 hours. She said she even talked with some of the kids - she said talking isn't hard as long as they approach her and start talking first.
Today is my too damn tired to want to do anything day.
