It's turning in to a weekly thing

One week later.  Beth has returned from her camp, she too had a grand time. thursday night, I went to the Harp Inn with my mom to see who was playing, nice jazz/blues band. REALLY didn't want to leave at 11pm. Friday night I went to the Irish Mist with Tim and Mom to see the Whooligans. MUCH Fun! We were good kids and left at midnight. Tim was um, giggly. Saturday after doing house stuff, we went to (repetative aren't we) the Harp Inn, where the knights were dueling for championship. This event was all-ages, so we took the munchkins with us. What a blast. Almost all furniture is removed, and the knights, in full armor, battle in the center of the room. The swords are dull, but the hits are real. It was amazing, cool, and LOUD. The kids loved it, Drew was awestruck, Tori thought it was COOL, and Katie wanted to check on each knight after battle to ensure they weren't hurt. Saturday night, I returned to the Harp to meet my mom, brother and sis-in-law (and friends) to hear the Fenians. I left later than I wanted, but was still in bed by midnight. Sang Sunday at both services. A Lovely duet with my friend. Then the girls and I went to (snicker) the Harp for Gypsys Kiss, an almost all female Irish group that plays more folk than rock. We love them, and I am thrilled that our friendship is blossoming.

Monday started Museum classes, and the littles are having a blast. Drew is doing well in class without me!!! I'm thoroughly enjoying reading in the rose garden, wandering the museum without anyone needing me to hurry up. Tomorrow is MY last day as Friday Tim will take the kids. We'll celebrate with a picnic with friends after our class.

I'm off, all these fun things have left me little time for necessary chores, like laundry.
