how'd it get to be Friday?

Things here are OK. Logan and Blake are in the pool for their after school swim, and I'm trying to tidy and make some organizing the stuff out of the boxes progress.

School is going OK. Group presentation on Monday for one class. Some work to catch up on for the other. Hope to be able to do some over the weekend, but as I'm flying solo with Blake, it's hard to say.

Turned in some needed paperwork at school, so it feels nice to be making progress through the teaching credential bureaucracy. Having the wallet $100 lighter doesn't feel so good, but I suppose it's all in the name of having a job next year.

High today and tomorrow is set at 103/104 F (that's 40 C for those of you who live in the civilised world). So very not my favorite. Blake seems to love it, though. He doesn't even complain about falling asleep when it's hot. Actually, come to think of it, he's been sleeping pretty well. Must be the swimming every day. He is turning a lovely shade of toasty brown. (and for those of you who know my pasty blue-white self in real life you'll know he didn't get that from me)

Much love from me and the child who has the cutest tan line in the whole world. Logan and I tried to take photos in the pool yesterday, we'll see if any of them come out.

My mum's colouring is almost exactly like yours, and I think mine is more like Ewan's, incredibly fair and the pale eyes.

I think Blake is quite fortunate to have the ability to tan. I have painful memories of horrible blistered sunburns as a kid.

Pale eyes are cool. Mine are blue with assorted other colours in them. Like green and yellow, not to mention blood shot during the summer due to allergies. I'm such a treat.

You and me both. I had one so bad my mom had to give me valium so I could sleep, it was so bad. I still have freckles from that burn.
