Working Week

Good morning everyone. Back to normal work/school week for Jill and Mia. Although Mia didn't have to go back till Tuesday but Jill went back Monday. I'm back to drawing lunch notes for Mia experimenting with new color pencils and different texture paper. It's fun trying new paper because you honestly don't know how the pencil will effect the paper so I get to learn new techniques again.

Wednesday was a frustrating one for the Blues. Chelsea's long run of 13 wins in a row stopped at 13 when those dirty rotten Spurs ruined the run at White Hart Lane. Wish we would have played better but we did win over the weekend in the FA cup 4-1. Despite the red card on Terry, they finished strong and will move on to the next round. Saturday I took Mia to Cascio to get her violin tuned and working. She LOVES this thing and has been playing it a lot. We're most likely going to be investing in lessons come Summertime when she's not as busy with everything. When we got home, Mia wanted to watch The Force Awakens. WHAT? Really? Okay. So I skipped through some darker scarier scenes and she really liked it and NOW wants to watch the original trilogy.

Later, we met up at our old favorite place to eat in Waukesha Steaming Cup with Jill's family.
I had a Flood meeting later that evening. It sort of was a bust because some of the guys that were supposed to come forgot or blew it off. We did however meet with one of the members of The Barons (who want an MLS team in the state) and they'll be joining The Flood with supporting the Torrent at the 2017 games. The stadium is way closer to my house and a lot of bars in the area so we're hoping to march to matches. Looking forward to the busy season.

Later we went to see Sing at the theaters. The girls saw it in Ohio but wanted to see it with me. Good movie. Sad moments but the saddest thing about it, was that the main character (to me) was far from likable. He wasn't memorable for the movie. Everything else was really fun and enjoyable but the koala was just not that exciting of a character. Sorry.

Sunday I watched the FA Cup Chelsea match. We did some cleaning and later I went to work.
This week, more art, hopefully not a lot of snow and Mia's back at dance on Saturday.

That's all for now, thanks for reading!
