Progress!

Much progress has been made in my training! I can do some pretty tight turns on the skates, my balance is a ton better, and my calves and thighs are starting to gain some nice muscle. I'm pretty excited, since I ordered a bunch of clothes last week, and when they finally got here, and I tried them on, they are about to be too big! Woo!
But also, major pain in the ass, since I just freaking bought them. Luckily a lot of them are drawstring because I foresaw this.
Mayhem lost her first tooth last night! While brushing teeth she kept complaining about it hurting, so, I harassed Smart Ass into yanking on it. (He absolutely loathes yanking teeth out. Feels they should just fall out on their own. I say, (in the words of the dear Pill, "BAH!" It's a part of childhood to yank loose teeth out.) Well it came out on the second try, very little blood, and no tears (from Mayhem anyway...). She has a super cute gap on the bottom now, and four shiny quarters just waiting to be used on something she doesn't need.
We never did get the bathroom done this weekend. Had too many other things going on, but we have plenty of time to do it. Found out yesterday that our a/c and furnace are on their last legs. They should make it through the year, but it's best not to push it. Especially the a/c unit. Vexing. But, at least we have advance notice, so we can start socking money away. The system is 31 years old, we really couldn't have expected it to last much longer.
Off to watch Howl's Moving Castle for the 800th time!
