Someday soon I’ll have a coherent post

Nothing substantial to post today. It has been a scattered sort of day where I did not get much done that I intended to do. I don’t feel too bad about it since I got so much done on the other days of this week.

January is half gone. Part of me rejoices because anything that brings me closer to spring is good. Part of me wants life to slow down because a more relaxed pace might be more enjoyable. The holidays seem like ages ago and yet it has really only been two weeks. Weird how time stretches and contracts.

I just finished reading Goblin Quest to the kids. They really loved it. It is a good thing that Smudge comes back at the end or Gleek would have been grieving for days over the death of a fictional spider. Now we’re on to Alcatraz versus the Scrivener’s Bones. We’re only one chapter in and the kids are already hooked. Reading aloud to the kids is something I enjoy. I also find it notable that all my kids now get complimentary notes from their teachers about their expressiveness while reading aloud. This makes me happy.
