This weekend was a bit of a tear, I’m finally sort of recovered.

Friday, the kids, one of X’s friends, Eddie and I drove to the Muddy Banks of the Wishkah to spend the night, and Xaiver and his friend had a Math Competition bright and really early on Saturday. I proctored for the 7th grade test – it was quite interesting. I also got some reading done while I was proctoring. Afterwards, the team met at Pizza Hut for lunch. Yum. They felt they did great – results are pending.

We drove back home (and my MP3 player on random did play Nirvana), and Xavier had a baseball game. Then, Eddie and I went to his School’s Silent Auction. Score – I bought a voucher from the Bus Company that will cover Cedric’s summer bus pass for $21 less than what it is worth. Whohoooo.

Saturday, our Church Sisterhood had our fundraising dinner. It was a wonderful Greek themed dinner – most of the food had been cooked in the days preceding it so it wasn’t a huge rush to get everything prepared for the dinner. Lots of yummy Greek food and I even got to bring home some leftovers. I got home about 9pm

Yesterday, our parish buried one of our beloved benefactors (may Theophilius’ Memory be Eternal) so I drove back to the church to help in the kitchen. Somehow, even though I’ve been Orthodox nearly ten years, it was my first Orthodox funeral. What a beautiful service.

And, last night was Book Club . I came home afterwards, walked past the dishes to be washed and clothes to be folded and fell into bed exhausted.

I think I’m recovered, so I have chores tonight after the Little League game. Go team!
