what did YOU do this weekend?

[SteveDallas]

Fri. AM... get to the office. Mrs. Dallas calls and says a neighbor is having her mom's baby grand piano delivered.. and wants to dump their old upright. When the movers show up they say they'll move the old one to our house for $120. Mrs. Dallas says she has $90 in her pocket and they can have that or a check for $120. They take the cash.

Fri. PM Mrs. Dallas--off to play piano for a rehearsal. Me--off to dress rehearsal for orchestra concert. I drag the kids along, partly so my daughter the cello player can hear the cello soloist. The kids leave the auditorium after 10 minutes in favor of the lounge downstairs.

Sat. AM Mrs. Dallas--off to another rehearsal to pay piano. Son has little league game at 9:30AM, so I take the kids to that. (Daughter doesn't want to go, so of course is sullen etc.)

After the game... bring the kids back home, drop them while I go cash a check at the bank. Mrs. Dallas returns home for about 30 minutes before running out to get her picture taken for the directory at the church where she plays piano.

1 PM --daughter's cello lesson. Son whines because his noise-making ability is curtailed.

Post-lesson.. Kids are whining because I want them to do something besides TV & computer. Mrs. Dallas gets back, we eat lunch, putter around the house, read The Cellar, etc.

7:30PM, Orchestra concert, me playing, Mrs. Dallas listening, kids at home.

Sunday... 8:15AM warm up to play handbells at a couple church services. Mrs. Dallas also playing, and keyboards as well. Quick rehearsal after the services are over, then Mrs. Dallas is off to a meeting and another rehearsal for the afternoon. The kids and I will, meantime, attend two little league games, not to mention having the kids' photos taken for team picture day.

Right. Anybody sorry they asked??
