It’s official: both kids are sick with colds. Martin’s eye infection has migrated to the other eye, so we’re currently in super goop mode here. Which means he can’t go to his Christmas party tonight, and it’s doubtful if Karin can be in her Lucia procession tomorrow morning. We’ll see.
I’ve been adding books to my wish list lately. I found 3 books about time travel that all sound totally cool and I can’t wait to find them:
- Tunneling: A Novel by Beth Bosworth
- The Time Traveler’s Wife by Audrey Niffenegger
- A Shortcut in Time by Charles Dickinson
My mom is landing in Germany sometime today and will be there, visiting my brother, for 6 days. She gets here on the 17th and John and Simone follow on the 21st. Must.Get.House.Cleaned.
This morning, same_sky‘s musings on the blog world summed up what I think of the phenomenon nearly perfectly.
