Rambling again

Well, sleeping was much better last night. Yay! It's dreary again today but we'll take the rain. We need it so bad. T's mom sent some old pics and a CD with old family pics on it. What a hoot! The girls thought their daddy looked like a geek in some of the pics but they liked his shoes in one. They want some like that and said that they are back in style now. It was fun to see family resemblances and who looked like who. I'm always fascinated by that stuff.

~ Thursday evening we went to a concert put on by the high school choir, which R is in, the concert band and the jazz band. It was pretty good. The jazz band was very good. It didn't sound real "jazzy" to me but they did some Transiberian Orchestra stuff that was pretty cool.

~ R is taking her ACT today for her second try. She got a 26 on her first attempt and that was without having any Algebra 2. It will be interesting to see how she does this time. If she could crank it up to a 29 that would seriously help in the scholarship area. She has a 4.0 GPA at this point too. Our kids never cease to amaze us.

~ R's cat, Sanome, likes to scoop food out of her dish and chase it all over the house before she eats it. I think it has something to do with catching her food and killing it before she eats. Sometimes she drops them in the water dish and then tries to scoop them out. That's funny. She'll scoop and then shake her paw. And repeat. And repeat. Goofy thing. I swear sometimes that she has opposing thumbs. She's very good with her paws and uses them almost like hands at times.

~ Well, I'm going to go feed Lillybet in the rain since R was running late. Then I'm going to wrap my gauze up in plastic wrap and take a shower. Should prove interesting. Oh, I played the keyboard last night so my friend could practice a song for Sunday. Bum finger and all. She's singing "Mary Did You Know" and sounding good.
