Nov. 12th, 2024 02:55 pm1. The next race will be a 5k Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving (28 Nov). The boys and their father and I run it every year. Then I have signed up for a very informal 6k on 22 Dec. This is organized by Minor's cross country coach and it's so informal it doesn't have a T-shirt and the entry fee was the cheapest I've ever known but I have discovered having an event to train for is much more motivating than not having one.
2. I have started a new craft project: a photo book for my sister of her orchids. It will be a flip book. I also made my first Christmas card today.
3. I am proud of Minisculus because he graduated to level 3 swimming. I suppose the practice in Aruba helped. I have signed him up for 1 more set of lessons beginning 19 Nov and then I think I will be satisfied unless he wants to go farther himself.
6 NOV: Saxophone Day: What’s your favorite musical instrument?
I like the way cello music sounds. I played trombone as a young person so I like the sound of it, too, and the clairnet.
7 NOV: Retinol Day: How happy are you with your skincare regime?
I am happy. I use a cleanser and a regular moisturizer with SPF and then in the winter I use a fancy moisturizer without an SPF (Creme de Mer) because my forehead gets very flaky with central heating.
8 NOV: Aid and Abet Punsters Day: If you like puns, what’s your favorite or most memorable?
I like them all. I like dad jokes, too. What did the Buddhist say to the hotdog vendor? Make me one with everything.
9 NOV: Carl Sagan Day: Do you have a favorite astronomer?
Galileo.
10 NOV: Sesame Street Day: Who is your favorite Sesame Street character?
Oscar and Cookie Monster
11 NOV: Origami Day: Do you know how to do origami?
No. The instructions always confuse me.
12 NOV: Fancy Rat & Mouse Day: What’s your favorite fictional mouse or rat?
