Vamos a un restaurante Mexicano!

I went with the second graders today to Los Bravos for lunch, where they ordered and conversed with the wait staff entirely in Spanish....then got up and sang "vamos a un restaurante Mexicano" to all the patrons and staff. It was one of the funniest and cutest things I've ever seen. Several of us moms sat together with Michael's teacher, who is just a lovely, lovely person and a lot of fun. The whole field trip was fun.

Friday night...I'm sitting here with a glass of red wine listening to Michael, Will and Jake from next door have a battle out back with two wooden muskets, plastic light sabers, various balls, and a couple of foam rockets. They have chicken nuggets in the oven; Lee and I are going to have buffalo burgers on the grill, plus roasted beets and watercress with feta cheese and a balsamic dressing, and roasted asparagus.

No practice today due to field trip; I did a hot 90 yesterday morning. I have been feeling a bit more stiff in my neck and upper back recently; don't know if that's because I have not been doing bikram as much, or because of my trying to learn sirsasana (which I worked on some more after the hot 90; I can get my legs to about half way and stay there for a little while, but no further without chickening out).

Tomorrow afternoon Michael and I are going to a parent and child yoga workshop; we went to one last month and it was loads of fun. Sunday Lee and Michael are going to Highlands, NC to Lee's Uncle Jack's 90th birthday. I hope to do at least the 45 minute short forms practice while I hypnotize Will with a movie or something. I am going to primary series level one next Friday...I guess I'll get in a couple hot 90's next week. I just hope I can keep my motivation going when I can only go to maybe one primary series class a week.
