Famous Last Words....

ok - Not famous or last but ironic would be a better word choice!

Last night (about 7:30 pm) on Facebook, I posted the following:
"Wahoo! Today has been a great day!"

It really was great! The kids were mostly well-behaved and we accomplished lots of things that needed to get done. Great!

We still had one or two things to do - like practice our weapons form for TKD. Bo staffs are long weapons that, personally, are kinda fun to learn. The Hubby really needed the practice so we all traipsed outside to practice.

After about 5 minutes, The Boy and The Hubby started to play around (bad) and five inches of The Boy's bo staff got broken. Yep, testing is coming up and he is dealing with a broken weapon. Nice. (Just FYI, I broke mine a couple of weeks ago also. So, we are down 2 weapons.) We duct taped it together and it appears to be holding. I guess we will see if it lasts to September 12!

Later, The Hubby was really focusing and had run through the form lots of time and it was looking good! Then, The Girl wanted her daddy and sneaked up on him. BAD. He didn't even see her and she literally walked into his staff. At first, it didn't look bad, but this morning she is sporting some lovely facial color. Good thing she is a tough chick!

our latest boo-boo
So, to sum up.
Great day - Not so great evening.

Oh, and The Girl crawled into bed with us at about 12:30 and kicked us both all night.

Not at great night, either!
