I admit that my girl's studies are making good progress. I'm happy with her progress overall (perhaps happier than she is), and further glad to see how she is scoring on her practice prep tests. I admit that I just survived what was supposed to be the busiest day of the year for programming and data analysis for my company, doing both without a smoke. My mind is a bit drifty and my tongue prickles, but I am otherwise fine. (I fell into a cotangent with my girl and derailed a perfectly good conversation by accident, but I think she understood.) I admit that I enjoyed teaching my son how to sew by hand today. He was very excited. He was able to fix a recently acquired Spider-Man costume all on his own as a result. Now he wants to study patterns, and make his own shirts and pants. (I know that machine sewing is stronger, but there is a sense of accomplishment in a thing done well by hand.) I admit that I need sleep, but that's not going to happen for a while yet. I've already worked two hours off the clock because I've exceeded the legal amount of hours I can work in a week according to local labour laws.
