School Days

Spent some time at the girls school yesterday as there was a mobile book fair and painting. Julia got a great book about a dragon and another hallowwen ghost story, she really likes those very much. Nicki picked a Christmas story about a bear, and also a book called "Best Friends" which was the only one we did not read last night so I am not sure what it is about.

Tonight we all go to their school again for a meeting with their teacher where they chhose some "goals" they want to achieve this school year- one being academic and the other social.

Julia and I still have the flu, though Julia was well enough to attend her tumbling/gymnastics class today.

I re-read "A Clockwork Orange", mainly because it is so short, also just re-read Orwell's "1984" which remains vivid and moving.

My soreness from the Marathon has about fully abated and I am considering starting up the running again this weekend. I might be crazy but I am thinking about doing the Marathon again next year. We will see.
