Perhaps I spoke too soon

While my athletic stamina has definitely improved, yesterday's yoga class caused me to wake up this morning in a world of hurt! Because you're exercising in a heated room, your muscles are warmer and you can stretch more--which seems like a good idea at the time. But I am moving a little stiffly today.

Good news! The dealership is going to buy our car for a fairly decent price. Skip is pleased with the deal and we'll turn it in to them on June 15. I tried to make the argument that since I'm the one who has driven the car (making it essentially my car), perhaps I should be the one who gets the check and decides how we should spend it. Skip said that was fine...as long as I decided to spend the money toward a new car---for him! Oh, well.

Even more good news. We've found Georgia the fish a good home. One of the girls in Maddie's Brownie troupe and her family are ready to adopt a fish.

Friend Pam has loaned us a paper shredded and we've already filled up one big recycling bag. Am starting to get a little overwhelmed. This morning, I had Maddie continue to work on her thank you notes from her birthday. I got out the list people and presents that we put together right after her party and three different sets up note cards to choose from and put it all out on our table. She waited until I got upstairs to call "what am I supposed to write with?" I came very close to yelling down, "With a #@%& pen! What else would you write with?" Instead, I took a deep breath and told her that I she was perfectly capable of finding a pen. Actually my response was probably a little more curt, but there were no curse words. Perhaps I need more yoga.
