Bird's Nest

So our birds have definitely decided to move in, and just like that, our front door is now a decoration, instead of an actual, operating door.  We're all entering and exiting the house through the garage for a month or so.  There are four or five eggs inside that nest.  We've got a small piece of furniture inside the house in front of the door to remind everyone that the door is to remain closed for a while.  I walked up to the porch to check and see if there was anything in there, and a bird flew out and into my face, right by me.  So we're now leaving everything alone as best we can.  

Mom took Nana over to Goodwill to do some shopping, and then off to do some grocery shopping, a nice little trip out today.  Meanwhile, Maddie and I had a good ol' fashioned video game day.  We haven' done this in so long.  Because of the Star Wars series, we started out with Battlefront II, but then we moved on to playing Disney Infinity together.  We have all the figures upstairs again - it's been three years I think since we've played the Star Wars level.

I was doing a good bit of work for FC Youth today too, keynote slides, letters, and some other things.  I think we're ready for that tomorrow.  My health has been a question mark though.  My heart races some times, and I can't exert myself at all.  It's frustrating, and kind of scary.

Tonight's feature movie was "Revenge of the Sith," as we move forward through the different Star Wars movies.  We were relaxing on the couch together for that one.  We read after that, moving along with the start of "Kingdom Keepers II," which Madison wanted to hear right after this last book.  I'm not sure how far along she'll want to go in the series, but she's liking this one too, so far.  

One more note:  she got a 98 on her math test last week.  It takes longer for her to get her math grades posted, so we've been hanging on this one.  She felt like she did pretty good, but we were still waiting to see what that one was.  It came as a big happy moment when it arrived - she's got all A's again in all her classes.  She's doing so well in class.  And she's doing well with taekwondo.  And she was playing piano today, and it sounds great.  She's still got some practice to do, but she's really coming along well with "Married Life."

We said our prayers tonight, and got to bed earlier.  It's going to be Sunday, and we've got another big day tomorrow!
