Such a Treat

Conveniently, Netflix just added Season 3 of Scandal!  Heaven help me - so glad I didn't know this until late yesterday.  I had two good days of budget progress and while still very swamped and behind, I feel better.  Yesterday, I got up at 5:30AM and was at work close to 9 - still enjoying a slow paced morning but at work pretty early for a weekend.  Today, I woke again at 5:30 but then snuggled in and let the warmth take me off to sleep again. Repeated again at 6:30....and so, SO enjoyed that 'warm and snuggly' feeling that always happens on weekday mornings and FINALLY happened on a weekend.  And I remember it!

Tomorrow, I head to Sacramento for a budget workshop.  Tuesday is construction meetings most of the day and a board meeting.  Other meetings scattered throughout the week including a trip to Acampo which is north of Lodi. A new district joined our monthly CBO meetings and it's their turn to host - so long drives this week here and there.

H. has had a good weekend - seems pretty OK other than being a bit more tired than usual. He's eating well and is (as usual) hungry pretty much all the time.

Season finale of The Good Wife and the finale of The Amazing Race!  Big Sunday night TV for us.

We had a call from B. who sounded like he'd been sleeping most of the day.  He's taking a road trip next weekend with friends - driving to San Antonio for the Memorial Day weekend.  We are helping him buy his ticket home this summer - not because he needs help but because we are helping H. quite a bit (gasoline, pocket money, etc.) so we want to treat B. to something, too.  He's excited about being home for two - possibly three - weeks this summer.

Only two more weeks of school left. The days are busy with year-end concerts; assemblies; portfolios; etc..  Kids look happy and teachers look tired.  It's been a whirlwind year for sure.

Back to my guilty pleasure - and baking Chocolate Malted Cookies for H. -

Our cleaning lady D. is here today - she wears earbuds and chats on the phone while she works.  She is the third cleaning 'person(s)'...
