“I Remember the Value of Friendship”
Yesterday I was reminded of the value of friendship.
Friendship is like a plant.
Treat it harshly and it will die.
Forget to nourish it and it will go away.
Talk to it or it will not grow.
Take it for granted and lose it.
Visit with it or else it becomes just another thing.
Friend, like a plant, is beautiful – keep it well!

This Morning
Woke at 12:30, 1, 3, 5 and 6:07. Woke in pure unadulterated panic. My fist sore from yesterday. Time to take the kids to the bus stop.
Yesterday
Cathy was gone to pick up Sarah. Amy was playing in Noah’s room. Noah was playing Gameboy in the kitchen. I went downstairs to get the Sizzix and got distracted on the computer. When I came back upstairs Amy was not in Noah’s room. She was not in Sarah’s room. I raced through the house calling her name and could not find her. She did not answer! I called louder and retraced my steps looking high and low and flipping covers. I called to Noah and he said, “She’s in my room!” I told him to help look so he came and stood by my side. No sign of Amy. Panic! No answer. More panic! I told Noah to look elsewhere and he finally called, “here she is!” Amy had stripped and squeezed her feet and bottom completely into the dog water bowl and was tossing the dog food all over the place. Noah should have heard the noise. He gets so caught up in that game that the house could be burning down and he wouldn’t know. I was scared and angry with myself for not watching more closely and I lost a battle with the kitchen cabinet. Wood 1; Fist 0.
Dotster and several other registrars are giving away 25 free 1 year registrations for .info domains. Catch that! 1 year. After that you’ll have to renew or transfer to another registrar so expect to pay $4-15 per domain (that could be 25 times so $100-$375 per year for these “free” domains). I’ve picked up several myself so far. Wonder how much I can sell this microsoft.info for?

This Morning
The kids are off to school. Today is to be action packed. We are in battle mode but we don’t want to be. I hate fighting the school system particularly when it seems like Tommy is not on our side.
Tommy and I went to his friend’s house to play Dungeons and Dragons. Tommy maintained and was in good control. Only once did he try to sneak up to his friend’s room prompting his friend to ask him not to. He knows better. Overall, an exceptional adventure and an exceptional evening.
I wish I had played Rune Quest more in college.
