Delia and Ballet

[pegkerr]

Well, I have signed Delia up for an introduction to ballet class. We have committed to just nine weeks to start, to see if she likes it, and if she does, we will sign her up again.

Mondays will be very difficult. I get off work at 4:30, and will have to pick up Delia and get her to her lesson at 5:15. It lasts until 6:15. When Fiona switches to red belt, I will have to get her to the dojo by 6:45, and since it's a sparring class, I have to get her there early so she can kit up. I wouldn't have time to go home to get her, which means I'd have to take her with me to Delia's ballet class and take them both directly there. If I am continuing with karate (and I really have not made my mind up yet), my sparring class is immediately afterwards at 7:35 and goes until 8:30. What do I do with Delia all this time? And when the hell do any of us get dinner? They would have to get their homework done before 5:15, too.

If Rob could help with some or all of this driving, it would be a big help, but he is totally unreliable in the evenings, due to his job, so I think it's very unlikely.

Hmm. Mondays really are going to suck.

Oh, and I've been thinking that someone really ought to start a chauffeur business that would do nothing but escort children to their extracurriculars. They could call it "Three Places At Once."

There was one of those in Charlotte when I lived there. The problem (for me) was that they'd only pick kids up from specified schools -- they wouldn't pick kids up from individual homes. But, yes, a genius business idea if you can work through the insurance issues.

Personal chauffeurs.....
