1. OK, I did get a little emotional watching AI tonight. It was Simon's farewell show and it just won't be the same without him. Paula was embarrassing. I liked some of the collaborations. I was rooting for Crystal at the end, but do like Lee. Don't know if I'll let myself get sucked into another season.
2. Tonight was a bit depressing on several levels. I went to Grace's new school orientation. And, as was the case last week at her school concert, I barely knew anyone. I've found it difficult to meet other parents as she doesn't do play dates and there aren't many other opportunities to meet other families. I did sit with a friend, but she was talking with someone else. Later she sent me a sweet email, which boosted my spirits. Next year I plan to be more active in the PTO and also the Newcomer's Club. I happen to be feeling particularly isolated right now and don't like it.
3. Today I was able to get the electrician over. He wasn't able to fix our problem. I was able to get the landscapers to come to get a major project done. Turns out there are multiple problems that need to be addressed. He and the arborist are working together to get our property back under control. I do hope I'm feeling more optimistic tomorrow. We all got an amazing night of sleep last night, but now Grace is still up at almost 11. Ugh!
