Here we are in our Hilton Hotel (which looks just like the Hilton I stayed at in Washington D.C. last weekend), starting our much anticipated vacation to the Holy Land. This is a new one for me. I realized on the drive down to SLC that I've taken vacactions, or at least work trips with some fun time tossed in, with just Mr. Sha, with just the Joid, with Math Man, with just the Stuc...and with the combos of Mr. Sha, Joid, Stuc; Mr. Sha, Stuc; Joid Stuc; Stuc, Math Man, Joid; ... every combo *except* Math Man and Mr. Sha! This will be a first!I am a bit sad to not have the whole family together. I miss Stuc and the Joid, but know that in May we will have a glorious trip in which we celebrate all that is holy and pure about the most magic of places.
Mr. Sha is not too happy about the fact he must work on some math while on vacation. He actually did 14 of the 96 problems he has to do, so has 14.6% completed. It took him less than 30 minutes...but the build up of dread was at least an hour. He does not wish me to report his psychosis. He worked very hard to make up as much work as possible prior to our departure.
Math Man is laughing at a book Mr. Sha's teacher gave in to read about color. It has a chapter on romatic logos and features two rabbits humping. It promises to be an interestng week.
Tomorrow we rise at 5 a.m. to catch our flight. Stay tuned for daily updates.
there's a first time for everything? tell "math man" i have that rolling stones song stuck now in my head (due to his photograph).
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to following the adventure from here! I hope Mr. Sha is making good progress on that math homework.
