Haircut

Due to parent conferences on Friday, Selim didn't have school.  We took advantage and went into Portsmouth in the morning so that he could get his hair cut at his regular place.

After that we went to the sticker store and then the bakery for hot chocolate.  We haven't made our rounds downtown in a while and it felt good.

Unfortunately, Selim's teacher had to leave school before we got to have our parent conference later that morning.  We must have just missed her, as we went to the library first for the book fair and then to the classroom.  We waited outside the room for a few minutes before someone came out to tell us that she had gone home.  We will reschedule for another time.

It has been a busy week.  I've done well on my 10k training plan.  It snowed on Wednesday night into Thursday morning.  That made for a slow and slippery ride home at midnight Thursday.  It also caused a two hour delayed opening for the area schools.  I found the winter coats, which was helpful.  But the boots from last year are too small and we need to get Selim a bigger size.

I loved the way the snow look melting off my car.  It looked like fabric!

Today we went to the Jackson Landing playground.  The ice rink next door was open and we got to watch the Zamboni drive around the ice.  The afternoon light made for nice picture taking. 

And of course, I had to take one of the two of us to add to our collection.
