I'm still recovering from a Winter guard competition chaperoning (I really don't do anything - just another adult there and I get in free!). We got to school for 8AM and got home after 10PM. The competition was a couple of hours away and we had the added bonus of a handful of the kids were preforming that morning for Pre-MPA for show choir across town. We picked them up after the performance and the school bus booked it to the event. We arrived 20 minutes before the JV was to preform - so no warmups, but they did great and placed 3rd in their division of 9 at the event. Not bad considering 3 people have dropped out - the most recent 2 after winter break so the show was rewritten a few weeks ago. Em is a co-captain this year.
the start of the show.
Em is on the right.
last Sunday Feb 1
This morning Feb 8.
I just have a small stack of tall houses to glue baste for the current cut parts of Brimfield Awakening. I was able to get a good stack done while the kids were getting ready before we left for the competition. I also stitched closed a hole in one of the snowballs for the performance.
This week the boy turned 18 on Friday, and we will see if he wants to do his 'birthday dinner' today or another time. Friday he was full from a baking contest the Academic club had after school - lots of sweets were eaten! Yesterday Em and I were gone all day and he did his annual birthday lunch and shopping with Grandma. He wants to do Indian at the local restaurant to check it out. We will see if he opts out since it is Superbowl Sunday here in the USA. I'll watch the game and do some stitching while listening. I'm not into football but will watch today. We do streaming services and not cable.... so I ordered Peacock (NBC) here in the USA so I can watch the Superbowl and the Olympics for the next couple of weeks.
Linking up with Kathy and the other Slow Sunday Stitchers.
Must go walk the dog, who did not get walked or go out much yesterday while I was gone.
