Erika commented on the inactivity of this blog, so of course I feel the need to remedy this. We have all been busy.
Rob has is working 10 hour days house painting (inside of course) and spending nights at the studio painting for art shows and Alden Gallery. He does try to mark some time at night watching the Knicks...nobody knows why!
Ian has track after school, and when that ends he heads to the auditorium to volunteer with the stage crew for Corcoran's upcoming Music Man performance. In his spare time he does massive amounts of homework, fills out scholarship applications and essays, works at the Y and sees Erin. I am heading to SU this morning at 8 to pick him up after his 3 day stint of interviews, tours, seminars, etc. for the Coronat Scholar. He still hasn't heard from Cornell, Columbia or UPenn. They typically don't send out admission letters until March 31st.
I have massive amounts of work with the Corcoran PTSO; fundraising and planning After Prom. Not easy tasks in a school with 1600 kids and 1580 uninvolved parents. I am also on the Ted Grace Reading Grove board and our annual StoryFest is April 3rd. Last minute preparations are killing me...advertising, ticket sales, refreshments, student volunteers, meetings. I hope this is again successful. Last year we had a snow storm the night of StoryFest, this year we moved the date to April. Not always a reliable tactic in Syracuse.
Oh yeah...and I have to work too! I have a bookfair next week and an author coming in April to add to the stress.
