Tonight

[pegkerr]

Really, it's insane.

Fiona has an afterschool meeting with the robotics team, so she'll be staying at school instead of bussing home. I get home from work at about 5:00 p.m. Then:

Robotics pot-luck at 5:40 - 6:40 p.m. Parents bring a hot dish and see what the kids have been building. Delia volunteered to make a cake when she gets home from school for our contribution.

Delia has karate class at 6:20. Will we be able to get her there in time? How do we get her home?

Precinct caucuses at 7:00 p.m. until whenever.

I have a karate class at 8:00 I probably won't be able to attend.

Then, I'm supposed to clean the dojo, starting at 9:00 p.m. This generally runs an hour and a half. If the caucus runs long, I might get out of there very late indeed.

In addition, this is the night before Delia's Learning Works application is due; I'd wanted to go over her essay again with her. When am I going to fit that in and still get her to bed on time??? Maybe we can squeeze in going over it again before leaving for the potluck.

Good thing the Girl Scouts meeting got cancelled.

Note to self: don't forget to to charge the phone and the Palm Pilot, since the battery is dead on both.

When our kids were little, Richard and I used to take turns attending precinct caucuses (one of us would go one year, the other would go the next year). This was sufficient to satisfy our mutual sense of civic duty. YMMV.

Good luck getting through the evening, however it works out. What a zoo!!
