Children's theatre went swimmingly yesterday - But it was a hella long day. I was at the school at just after nine, and after two performances, strike, and party, I didn't get home 'til after 10pm. I pretty much went straight to bed.
But in the course of the day I got to hold A - he is seven months old now (and drooling, but not cutting teeth yet), and he is a little darling. And H - one of the four-ish month old twin boys of our "wicked stepmother." As I was cuddling H, one of A's dads asked me if I heard any ticking. Nope. I can safely say, there is no bio clock ticking desperately down. I do love babies and kids, but I am not finding a huge urge in me to have any of my own. As I've always felt, if it happens great, fine, whatever, but if not in this life, well, maybe the next one.
So today I spent doing errands I have neglected doing for ages - as I've been sewing for the last few weekends without ceasing. Although, I am getting quite a closet full of fairy tale story costumes. And I am getting better at adapting patterns to fit what I want - and also of creating bits and pieces. I also now own a tiara. I ask you, what life is complete without a tiara? The actress came offstage and immediately handed me the tiara and I plopped it on my own head so I could collect other stuff. And i spent the whole of the cast party with it on my head. Because, really, if you own a tiara you should wear it at least once. So it will go into storage with the captains hat, the fake top hat, the three-quarter satin gloves, the politician's boater hat, etc. etc. etc. And all I have to do is wash and iron all the clothes before I store them - the auditorium we were in was incredibly well heated, and everyone sweat through everything.
