Remember Today 1.14.11

{remember} a long, jam-packed, exhausting day that began with a call from my dad that my mom was in the hospital to have her gall bladder removed, and ended with me collapsing into bed and reading two pages before conking out.  And everything in between: cleaning up the house, computer work, shopping a fab clearance sale at JoAnn's, hitting the grocery store for home-made ice cream ingredients, dashing home for lunch with Maddox, visiting a friend to talk shop about the makings of her creative space, prepping the boys for Logan's snowboarding lesson, packing for a crop, hosting the 4-hour crop, tucking the boys into bed, a late dinner at the computer, and more work.
