    Yesterday…

    * Oh my God, the snow. Big and fluffy, small and icy, snow, snow, snow. And then it started raining. Meh.
    * Matthew drove me to school because I was a little leery of driving in the snow. Two-thirds of the math class was there, which must mean that they love the class as much as I do. We did hyperbolic functions. Sinh(), cosh(), etc.
    * We went to the mall and I bought two dress shirts, a pair of dress shoes, and three pairs of nylons. I hate shopping.
    * We had to nix plans to go out to Bonefish for dinner because the weather was just miserable. Chef Boyardee to the rescue.

    Yesterday…

    * We found Rebecca’s original ballet slippers in the lost and found at ballet. After I’d written her name on the new ones with Sharpie.
    * I bought a pack of floss for her budding friendship bracelet hobby. I was getting tired of her raiding my small, small stash.
    * I did most of my math homework. Yay, length of a curve and work.
    * Madeline ate four of Cinderella’s slippers, and I told Rebecca that there was no way that I was fishing through poopy diapers to find them. Goodbye, glass slippers.
    * I watched _Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles_ on FOX’s web site. Are they ignoring _T3: Rise of the Machines_ completely, or will it be worked back into the timeline later on? I wonder. It may be like _Highlander 2_, where it exists but isn’t considered canon.

    Yesterday…

    * My class started at NVCC. MATH 174, also known as Calculus 2. I love my math class. Of course, I drove there in a snowstorm that disappeared by the time I turned the corner.
    * Marcus made lunch while I was away at school. Life skills! Macaroni and cheese!
    * I taught Rebecca how to make friendship bracelets with some spare floss.
    * I bought floss organizers to prevent the floss I have from turning into a rat’s nest.
    * Last, but not least, Matthew and I celebrated our tenth anniversary.

    Yesterday…

    * I printed out my temporary parking tag for NVCC.
    * I made Thai beef green curry for my dinner while everyone else had leftover basil chicken. Tamarind just annoys my mouth.
    * The baby had beans and rice for lunch.
    * Another house on my daily dog-walking route went on the market. It is right next to one that has been on the market for at least three months.

    Yesterday…

    * Matthew made basil chicken for dinner; I fed some of the mild batch to Madeline and she yummed it up.
    * I sorted all of my felt by color. Rainbows!
    * I had fried halloumi cheese for dinner. ‘Fried’ and ‘cheese’ go so well together.

    Yesterday…

    * Jess came over and we needlefelted a poppy and a hedgehog each. We also walked the dog. But there was lots and lots of needlefelting.
    * Rebecca threw one heck of a tantrum and Matthew carried the television out to the shed. The kids asked “Can we watch TV?” a few too many times this weekend. Not cool. Hello, peace and quiet.
    * The mailman brought a box of felt. Yay, felt!

    Yesterday…

    * I took Rebecca to the store and got new ballet shoes. I am so glad that this pair came with the elastics already sewn.
    * I had a Caesar salad for dinner.
    * I washed all of Madeline’s stuffed animals and soft toys.
