Yay, me.  Both my children are now officially enrolled in public school.  And the best part is that Rose got both her Japanese and Drama classes, which were her primary reasons for wanting to go back to school.  I was afraid with all the run around that she'd get locked out of the classes she wanted to take.  Orientation is on Wednesday for her and on Friday for Tobias.  I'm just really happy she got Japanese.  She wants to live in Japan some day, possibly teach English there like [livejournal.com profile] honorh or do something in the computer graphics industry for Ninetendo (which you know, she could do here in WA, but that's not the point).  She's wanted to live there for a long time, so this is like step one on that path.

The smut-a-thon got it's first two entires today, so I'm happy it's officially off and rolling, as well.

Took the weekend off swimming because I've been sick to my stomach.  Hopefully going back to the pool tonight won't be a mistake, but my body feels very tight and swimming makes everything loosen up again.

After that I've got a fic to beta and then some writing of my own to do.  I'm hoping to finish up a couple of smut fics.  I did a massive catch up on comments yesterday and today.  So if you got an answer to something you left in early August, yeah, that's why.  I've been kind of crap at answering them lately.  I will try to do better.  Now that the stress of getting the kids into school is lifted I'll be more active on LJ again.

30 laps!  In 50 minutes.  Woo freaking hoo.  I had a chat with the lifeguard tonight and he told me there was a chart on the wall that told how many laps equals what mileage.  I, of course, without my glasses on in the pool, have never paid the least little bit of attention to these wall charts.  26 laps equals 1/4 mile.  Hee!

Who rocks the pool?
I rock the pool
And when I rock the pool
I do it all night long!

Yes, I am totally being ridiculous, but considering six weeks ago I could only swim six laps, I am very proud of myself.  As lifeguard person pointed out, this is a 500% improvement.  So, yay, me!
