A giant sunny diamond..

..is spread across our living room floor, and presently nothing in the world sounds as good as laying down in that perfect warm brilliance for a nap.

But instead I will keep moving through the necessary tasks of afternoon:

Wash the perfect(I mean, PERFECT) four dollar gray woolen blanket I got at goodwill today

Clean the kitchen from last night's dinner( By the way: our kitchen after a meal for the six of us looks exactly like a town deserted in the wake of a traveling carnival)

Embark on the next chapter of the endless investigation into "what the $%^& is that smell" in the green car, which must be found and eradicated. So far all we can figure out is that a kid spilled something a long time ago, it soaked into the fabric, and no amount of cleaning helps. It's going to be detailed and steam cleaned this week. If that doesn't work, you're all welcome to attend a HUGE bonfire in our backyard soon.

Check progress of today's primaries every five minutes

Sign up to bring large quantities of food to Willow's school on Friday for the breakfast her class is hosting.

Redbeard Music work

Paint Will and Isaac's bedrooms

Figure out how to sing with as much guts as Glen Hansard

And lastly, succeed in posting before Daniel. Ha. I win.

Peace,
Katie
