Was your reaction, from what? Fleet Feet on Wolf Road in Albany is starting their spring No Boundaries training program. You pay $75 to get someone to kick your non-running butt into training so that you can run a 5K on Father’s Day. I have to tell you, I’m sort of intrigued by this one … [Read more…]
We went sledding today, and I have to tell you: I am not good at sledding. You would think that there’s not a great deal of skill involved. I mean, children do it quite successfully. Not me. I always get nervous and start wiggling around, and that throws the sled off course, and next thing … [Read more…]
We had pretty much tired ourselves out today by 2 pm. We saw Rumpelstiltskin at Steamer 10 Theatre, then we had a quick bite at home and headed out to ice skate at Union College.  If we go to a show again this week, I think we’d make it a nap-time show at 1 pm … [Read more…]
Okay, so one item that I missed in the weekend round-up is that kids are invited to paint eggs from Cooper’s Ark Farm at the Schenectady Greenmarket this Sunday. Second, I just had to show you one of the castles that we’ll have as centerpieces for our nursery school’s Family Dinner. Cute, right? Paper towel … [Read more…]
Okay, I know, I’ve been the slacking blogger lately. Originally I thought that I’d be home much earlier yesterday, but with the crazy weather, plans changed. In case you were wondering, yes, it was warm and pouring rain on Monday at Jiminy Peak. It was monsoon-like. We took a walk that morning and it was … [Read more…]
We had a great time at Central Park today, and it was a pretty good turnout. When we showed up, there were about 50 people there, and the kids had already blown through the 50 cups of cocoa (Daddy made some at home later). It was getting a little bit melty on top, so it … [Read more…]
OK, I should have known not to post right before going to the downtown Schenectady library. I always find more good stuff on the bulletin boards there. So, there was an activity that screamed out, “Katie!!!” Someone’s organizing a “skate in” at Central Park in Schenectady from 1-3 pm on Saturday, Jan. 16th. This is … [Read more…]
Yeah, it’s freakishly cold and snowing again. Let’s try to embrace it, shall we? I was looking at things to do for this weekend (it’s coming soon, I promise!) and I noticed a few snowshoe-oriented events, so I said, hey, let’s make a post of it, shall we? On Saturday, January 9, at 10 am … [Read more…]
So, I attempted to be useful while J was doing gymnastics today–both the girls are loving it, and the next session at World Class is starting next week. Incidentally, J’s little friend has decided to switch to dance and J said, “I’m a little sad that she is in retirement from gymnastics. We are very … [Read more…]
Guess what? I figured out how to find the statistics on the number of people who’ve looked at the blog, and it was more than 9! Yay! It gives me the energy to keep plugging away. I’m going to try to learn how to make my links prettier, for one thing. And one of my … [Read more…]
