Lots of Work

After dropping off Noah at school I went to a market research study I signed up for.  It was about banking and was only an hour.  It paid well. I got $215 for just an hour of my time.  Good deal!

From there I went to a running store to get new shoes.

I had lunch at home and then picked up Noah.  We hurried through HEB and barely made it home in time for Morry to go pick up Evan.  He took Noah with him and I left to tutor.

Gabby came over.

I tutored 3.5 hours today and got home around 7pm.  Morry had fed the boys dinner already.  We had burgers (veggie for me) and pasta for dinner.

Noah helped quiz Evan on his spelling words tonight.  Noah had fun reading off the sheet and asking Evan how to spell words.

After the homework was done we were sitting around the table and Morry coughed a few times.  Evan then called Morry "Mr. Kaufman."  It was pretty funny.  I think he just made that up on the spot. 

The boys are in bed now, but not asleep.

Downtown stuff

The boys were good this morning and drop off at school went well.

I got things done around the house and ran some errands.

The boys were happy at pick up too.

Noah didn't nap, but stayed in his room for a little bit.

Gabby came to babysit. A market research company contacted me to see if I would participate in a focus group this afternoon. I was scheduled for 4:45-6:45 and then I had a fashion show (Art Bra Show) meeting right after that. When I arrived for the focus group they told me they had overbooked and I could go home (with pay). That was nice, but I had 1 1/2 to kill until the next meeting. It wasn't really enough time to go home. I was downtown and getting home would take at least 30 min. in traffic. It didn't make sense for me to go home and then turn around and come back downtown a little bit later.

I just hung out at Book People, read some books, and got a smoothie.

At the meeting they showed us which bras we would be wearing and we talked to stylist about what to wear with them (shoes, pants/skirt, jewelry, etc). They had two big shot stylist there. One guy works with famous people here in Austin and the other guy just finished working on a movie set.

I got home around 8pm. We just got Evan and Noah ready for bed and Morry is reading to them now.
