The pre-move mode

So we've decided. LOL We seem to be doing that a lot recently. I never knew marriage would be filled with so many .... decisions. This next one is to move.

Not very far though. Still in town (unless B's job decides otherwise) but the house we have now is older and with older, we have old wiring and old plumbing. We have probably spent a half a month's rent on just lightbulbs and draino.

So this weekend will consist of looking at possible places. And maybe packing a little too. Or at least going through stuff we should get rid of.

I did a storytime for 360 people today. Okay so it was four storytimes for 90 people but still my biggest group yet. I love doing storytelling. I like using my whole body to play out a character or series of characters. I still use a book because it is comfortable and I am not yet sure enough to believe that I alone could hold their attention. Most of the kids seemed to enjoy it and the teachers told me what a good job I did.

I just love words. I love cool words. The ones that stump the kids. I told one boy that he was erudite. And gregarious. He seemed shocked that I, an adult, would call him insulting names. I just love the sound of words.

I like being funny. It is a sound that everyone understands... a laugh.

So that's being my week starting with something not so funny (dental) and ending on something funny (storytime). I wonder what next week will bring.

Good day and LOL!
