Good morning, all.

Off to a busy morning at the farmers market and a fundraiser lunch that includes a whole pig roast. And then a book signing. It feels much better than being tied down to my laptop.

Saturday morning greetings!  This afternoon Mary Linda and I are going to downtown Middletown's Women's Wine & Chocolate Walk with my friend Katie and her daughter Laura.  I hope the rain clears out before 2pm!

Lots to do today including attending little Cole's T-Ball game, grocery shopping, and cleaning the apartment.

What I really want to do is relax on the couch and watch DVDs all day long.

Very rough night - still fighting the guck (and hopefully winning), but there is something in marinara sauce that just doesn't sit well with me and I have to stop eating it.  So, heartburn aplenty and a wacky throat, but hopefully I'll feel better as the day goes along.  I think I got six hours of sleep but who knows.

For some reason I am feeling nervous. It is my niece's semi-finals swim meet this morning.

I'm not surprised you are feeling nervous. :)  How did she do?

DR Cilla I like your win, win idea and agree it isn't worth saying anything to your brother.  He doesn't need the stress and he can't change the situation without causing problems at home.  It isn't worth it.

For some reason I am feeling nervous. It is my niece's semi-finals swim meet this morning.

I'm not surprised you are feeling nervous. :)  How did she do?

They did not post all of the results yet.  So I only partially know.  She did finish 2nd in back stroke and swam 50.5 seconds for 50 m (that is 2 seconds faster than her previous best).  She might have finished 2nd in front crawl at around 42 seconds for 50 meters.  That is 4 seconds faster than her previous best (this is what my brother-in-law timed her at).  She definitely finished 2nd in her heat which was the final heat.  But they did not post those results.  But she definitely made the finals in both events. And her coach was extremely happy with her front crawl race (her coach had some corrections for the back stroke).

The finals will be at my niece's pool in 3 weeks. So I will definitely go to that.

Cilla, I think your solution was a good and practical one--for YOU. But I'm concerned that your mother's wishes may have been bulldozed by your brother's take-charge attitude. Did I misread this? I dislike it when people charge in and expect THEIR way to override plans already made. I think it's great that your mom gets two outings, but it was hardly fair to you.  I hope that you and your brother find a way to "share" your parents, which considers the needs of all involved.
