Sympathethic Calf Cramps
So I wake at 12:30! I’m thrilled. I can get 5-6 hours of work in before the house activity starts!
So at 3:30 I open my eyes and lie in bed listening to someone wandering about. Shortly later Amy wanders into the bedroom. It’s only natural that I want to stay in bed and keep her between Cathy and I for safety.
A few minutes later I’m punished with a calf cramp that makes me want to scream.
At 4:30 I rise to get to work. I’m particularly happy because the dog has chosen to stay in the bed with Amy and Cathy which should make Cathy very happy. I have this happy thought as I climb the stairs and by the last step the dog is behind me. I close the gate trapping her downstairs. She’ll punish me by spoiling the carpet I’m sure.

I missed a photo opportunity of a lifetime this morning!
As if a scene taken right out of a movie, Wierd Science perhaps?, one of the boys had his underwear on the outside of his sweatpants! When confronted on this his reply was “I didn’t know [they were on the outside]” but he quickly rectified the situation. I really don’t want to try to imagine why they ended up on the outside.
