I have to admit, I have not been posting as much as I would like. What has been happening? **SPOILER ALERT FOR PARENTS OF PRESCHOOL CHILDREN** It turns out that once your child enters the world of school, the months of May and June spiral into a worm hole that sucks in as much matter as possible, turning your once "Restoration Hardware" worthy living room into a disaster zone of construction paper projects and cut outs. In addition, you have the maximum amount of stuff to deal with in the minimum amount of time (remember that space and time are connected and the worm hole affects both).

We had the Spring Concert for Soleil’s class yesterday. And we had Luna’s 5 year checkup.(a whole other post about why do peds NOT HAVE ALL OF THE VAX ON HAND) I think I got a total of 2 hours of work in. I am preparing to take my Girl Scout Troop up to our town encampment. This is an overnight trip where the entire town goes. Most of the girls have a dance recital on Friday, so we are going up Saturday morning. Leaving my house at 7:30am (YIKES). Only 3 girls are staying overnight, but then we return on Sunday. I am trying to be prepared for this trip, but I am nervous.

We also have the Spring field trip, the extra days due to snow days at school (making school end late on June 19). In addition to all of this, we are arranging our travel to Brazil for the International Astronomical Union meeting in August. The hotel we arranged claims we can’t fit 4 people in one room in Brazil, so we are looking into a suite to have the girls sleep in the main room and we sleep in the bedroom.

Then we need to get our visas for the Brazil trip ($140 EACH).

Can you tell we’ve been a bit busy?

Anyway, I will try to post more as I can, but right now? Yeah, that wormhole has taken over my life!
