Sheep Guarding Llama

Monday.  We got up and did house cleaning today.  We cleaned all morning and the kids did not get up until after noon! It was a busy day for me and I did not even end up eating today until I had some frozen yoghurt tonight when I took the girls out for it around eight at night.

I got the new logo for MangoLassi up on the site tonight, everyone seems to really like it.

SGL updates are pretty sparse these days.  This fall has been really challenging for me to keep up.  I’m doing half of these updates in January from Italy.  But I am getting past the biggest gaps and pretty soon will be posting updates that were recorded, in full form, as they happened.

Rachel spent some time this evening with the borrowed telescope that is at the house set up and looking at the moon in the atrium.  The moon is super close and bright right now.  So the girls went out and checked it out for a while.  This is their first time really using a telescope.  Pretty cool for them.  Dominica enjoyed it, too.

Dominica built a cubby hole dresser think from Ikea for the kids tonight so that they can organize some of the stuff in their bedroom.

Sunday.  Today was so slow and uninteresting that the only thing that I recorded about today is that Liesl wanted Waffle House for dinner and that we went there.  How excited our lives are when we are in Texas 🙂

Saturday.  Lots of people sitting around the house and talking all day.  I didn’t record any notes about what we did today other than me doing some maintenance work on some websites.

I had insomnia last night and did not sleep at all. So early this morning I set to working and did some system updates while it was in the wee hours of the morning.  Might as well take advantage of the fact that I was awake all evening.

It’s Friday.  No news.  Ready for the weekend and some time to ingest all that is going on this week.

Thursday.  Pretty slow day, no news from the home front to report.  Still we are just dealing with the emotional and planning impacts of the election results.  Everyone is still very hopeful that the electoral college will overturn things, but we don’t have much faith in that, they have never done it before.  They are basically just a rubber stamp process.

This whole affair has made it a lot easier to talk Dominica into being out of the country far more than we had planned on previously, however now we are talking about contingency plans in case things go really badly in the US and what if we are stuck having to not return to the US for a long time in case it goes into martial law or whatever.  That might sound extreme, but things have already happened that we did not think were really possible and we have to be ready for anything to happen now.  There is every possibility that things will be fine, but every possibility that we are looking at a worst case scenario, too.  We need contingency plans, we have little kids to think about.

So that has been taking up our time.  Not much else to tell about today.
