Survival

We successfully navigated this first week of practices. Whoo! Despite the fact that the new gym is in Bulverde, we have to travel there during rush hour on 281, practice is on Wednesday (choir) night, and I missed the carpool sign-up since one of the mom's cars only seats four extras, we were on time and she did great. Everybody who thinks that carpool mom with only four seats should get bumped in favor of me having seven, raise your hand. Thanks.

But seriously, I might offer to take both her shift and mine, because even with that, I'm still driving less than doing it all on my own. Everybody wins.

AND Katy found a girl from this year's freshmen who is willing to sell her uniform (only one out of four will be passed down) (of course) and she has got to be the exact same size because it fits Katy perfectly. Score. Even the coach approves. Now, if we can find the warm-ups, jersey, "comp" (competition??? Help me here. Surely it is not "comp" as in complimentary. I wish :) top/skirt, and whatever a bodyliner might be at Monday night's free-for-all spirit garage sale, we will save some serious cash.

Is it horrible that I am secretly glad that the dance studio rehearsals are closed to parents? I am not sure I am cut out to sit and watch rehearsals for an hour and a half each day. Although maybe it's teaching me something about my aversion to just being still. We shall see. For now, I'm ready for the weekend. This was a lot to process in one week.

Current mood: exhausted & down one full tank of gas
