Really Saturday

Ok. Now it is "really" the day about which I am "blogging."

A fairly typical Armieri Saturday. Dallas and Mia woke me up around 7:45 am, a decent "getting up" time in my book. Brian and Emma awoke soon after. Brian and I discussed whether we'd go the gym at the same time and put the kids in the Child Watch, or go separately. We decided that I would go first. I drove Brian's Miata down to the Peak Fitness in Apex, worked out (weighs) for about 35 min., and came back. When I returned Mia was playing a "horsey game" on the downstairs computer, Emma was watching TV, and Dallas and Brian were "missing" (which I correctly interpreted as being upstairs in the master bedroom with Brian reading to Dallas from the Deltora books). I commented to Mia that "Ni Ni and Claudia go a new puppy yesterday..." which sent her running down the street to their house. The same comment had the same effect on Emma. :) My evil plan had worked, which was to get them outside rather than "doing media."

Right now Brian is at the gym, Mia is down at Bella's house, and Dallas and Emma are here in the living room provoking each other.

Time for some lunch....
