    Yesterday…

    * I woke up to miserable, drenching rain. No doggie walks. Lots of stir crazy.
    * I made potato soup for the Friday fooding.
    * I fiddled with Photoshop and Illustrator and finished my punchlist for . Added a plugin, found out the YouTube API has some issues, made pretty logo graphics, etc.
    * Rebecca did math without complaining… much.

    Yesterday…

    * I mailed off my business license application.
    * Rebecca and I went to the grocery store after her ballet lesson. Fish sticks were buy one, get one free. Hot chocolate was on sale.
    * Code. There’s a lot of coding going on.

    Yesterday…

    * Yay, math class! I spent the first half doing the homework for the lesson, and the second half fiddling around with two equations proving that they were equal. Terms raised to the 3/2 and 5/2 powers, but once simplified, they were in fact equal.
    * Code. The end is in sight. Oh, the code.
    * I made two successful batches of popovers. They did not burn. I am puzzled as to what I did differently.

    Yesterday…

    * I made a double batch of popovers for breakfast. I burned the bottoms. The kids ate the tops. Breakfast sucked.
    * More code. Some browsers can’t clear floats properly. Code, code, code.
    * Some other stuff I can’t remember probably happened, but clearly didn’t leave an impression.
    * Oh, I walked the dog. The neighborhood is looking kind of empty. Tumbleweeds.

    Yesterday…

    * I baked a chicken for dinner, stripped the carcass, and made a big batch of chicken stock for soup on Tuesday.
    * I spent a lot of time dealing with Illustrator (I hate Gaussian blur, among other things) coming up with some graphics.
    * Madeline learned the word ‘pee’. She now grabs her diaper and yells, ‘Peh!’. I see a potty in her future.

    Yesterday…

    * I spent a lot of time fiddling with WordPress and templates and CSS and Photoshop.
    * We went to Harbor Freight and bought Marcus a cabinet full of bins. He got home and started sorting his Legos into the bins… and off the floor. Yay!
    * Rebecca picked out some multi-colored floss at the needlecraft store. Her stash of friendship bracelets grows daily.

    Yesterday…

    * I made muffins and eggs and bacon for breakfast.
    * I spent four hours on the phone. Four. Hours.
    * I made beef enchiladas for dinner. Extra hot and delicious!
    * Strat and his sister came over for the Friday fooding. Rebecca gave his sister a friendship bracelet, and had her hair brushed. Recessive girl genes, I swear.
