Kangaroos on Jupiter

Things are a little crazy this week. It's almost funny how busy I am at work... I have this system for managing my "to do" list, basically I put stars next to each item. Four stars for things that must be done today, three stars for things that must be done this week, two stars for things to do ASAP, and one star for "eventually" items. Today I had meetings literally back to back all day, and the only unscheduled time was from 10:30-11:00 a.m., with my last meeting ending at 5:30. So at 3:30 as I was running from one meeting to the next, I glanced at my to do list for today and there were SEVEN items on there with four stars! You know what I did? I laughed. (It wasn't really that funny, since it's now 10:45 p.m. and I'm working my way through those items)

At home, everyone except me is sick. I felt bad leaving sick Davis home with three sick kids today, but they all survived. I stopped at Walgreens on the way home and got drugs for everyone, and they were all asleep by 7:15 p.m.

Today, Sophia told Davis "Daddy? Did you know Jupiter is really big, that means it has a LOT of gravity. Kangaroos on Jupiter can't jump very high. They are just flat." And then she laid down on the ground to demonstrate.

Davis and Henry are asleep in our bed, Amelia is asleep in a little heap on the floor at my feet, and Sophia is asleep on the couch. I'm going to ferry everyone to their beds and try to get some sleep, because tomorrow's schedule? Even worse than today.
