Mark and I did homework this morning: preparing for an oral book report, 4th grade math (to prepare for our return to the U.S.), sign language, occupational therapy, recorder practice. Whew, it was a lot. Catherine mostly toddled about while we worked.
Late in the morning, we went to the library to get another Harry Potter book: Mark finished the first one already. We also picked up a couple loaves of banana bread at the bakery.
This afternoon, Catherine napped, Mark read his new book, and Catherine and I hit the tennis ball to Tosca in the park.
This evening, we had popcorn and a movie. After the kids went to bed, I worked on my presentation for the upcoming Industrial and Commercial Use of Energy (ICUE) conference. I have to speak on Thursday morning. I also worked on some economics modeling regarding sustainability and dematerialization.
The weather improved today, and we saw some sunshine. Tomorrow and beyond look significantly better, too. Which is lucky for Tracy and the others on her seminar/conference. The whole lot of them (20 or so) are arriving in Cape Town on Monday.
Speaking of the conference, Tracy went to Pretoria to see Freedom Park and the Voortrekker Monument.
