How did I miss almost a week of blogging? Where did the days go?

Where did the time go? Let's see if I can account for those missing days.
Saturday: Dance team competition day. Very tired when I got home.
Sunday: Worked on writing a press release for the dancers. Went to Costco. Made soup. Visited briefly with Jessica, who was disappointed that her soup was not ready for her to take home. Worry about the forecast for snow and ice. So far it's been OK. Worry about Jessica driving to her place. The hills are steep and it is near an area notorious for getting snow.
Monday: MLK Day. Updated the dance team FaceBook pages. Revised the article and sent it to Jessica for input. Ate soup. Emailed article to the school for their website.
Tuesday: Worry about the forecast for snow and ice again. The weather gurus think this may be the worst day so far. So far it's been OK. Forward brief version of the dance article to the local paper. Hopefully they will have room for it.
Wednesday: Finished the last of the Chicken Soup originally made for Jessica. Realize I will need to be making a triple batch for her this weekend.
Thursday: Ate the bean soup languishing in the refrigerator. Make mental note to freeze it if I do not finish it all. Google the dance team to see if the articles & pictures have been published. They have. Looks good on the school website. I am shocked to see that the local paper has used the long version of the article. Of course they re-wrote and edited it somewhat. Sports editor needs to earn his keep. However, I do not really care for his edits, nor for the tone the article now has. Without the back story, it makes us sound arrogant. Grrrr. I wish they had just published the results and the picture. I am glad that even though the work is 90% my words and my photo, that I am not given a by-line or photo credit. I can live with this. I have credit on the school page.

I also watched way too much TV. I was not very productive. I did not walk. Not even once. After it stopped snowing, it started raining. Raining in biblical amounts. We might need an ark. It's flooding everywhere. One of my cousins posted YouTube video of the rising river near my mother's place. She said they were fine, but cut off until the water goes down. It is good she lives on a hill. But the farm land is flooded. I am worried for the farmer who rents the farm land. I hope he does not suffer too much damage. We all want our organic produce.

...and that's what you missed on Licorne's Lament!
