The highlight of this week was Doruk\u2019s book reading in Minneapolis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I flew out Thursday, worked all day, and then when that was said and done we got into book reading mode. The event was fantastic. All of the authors crushed it. Afterwards we went out and we laughed and laughed and laughed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
On Friday, I came back and we toured the house. We\u2019re finally making progress. It\u2019s feeling more and more like there\u2019s a light at the end of the tunnel. I\u2019m learning a lot about things I\u2019m sure they never intended for me to see, but with the project as late as it is – we don\u2019t have time to use the traditional playbook. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m really optimistic that we made a huge dent this last month or so. I\u2019m really hoping that big swaths of this project are done now, and we can start the sprint to the finish line. There\u2019s still about 1\/3 of the race to go, but I think we\u2019ll get to the final 10% quickly now. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kids are doing great. Amelia brought home a few graded projects – all of them A\u2019s of some sort. We\u2019re finishing up From the desk of Zoe Washington<\/em> and it\u2019s getting really exciting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Theo is starting more playdates with his crew, and I\u2019m really excited about that. Even as who his crew is fluctuates the most important thing is that they are his chosen people and not the siblings of his siblings friends. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Amelia and I went upstate this past weekend and brought down 1 gallon water bottles. We\u2019re all drinking more water as a result, and I think it\u2019s going to be great for us!<\/p>\n\n\n\n First ski run this weekend though I think it will be just the kids. Let\u2019s see how much snow there is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This was a good week. I hope there are many more like it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The highlight of this week was Doruk\u2019s book reading in Minneapolis.
