And I wonder why I'm tired...

today's schedule so far:

8:00 - pancake breakfast fundraiser for Punkin's school
9:00 - drop Punkin and the Italian off at Mandarin class
9:15 - purchase bagels and endure one of Buddy's raging tantrums (he didn't get exactly the cookie that he desired. I sat him down on the sidewalk outside the bagel shop and just let him scream.)
9:30 - stop at an estate sale, pick up a few things
10:00 - retrieve the Italian from Mandarin, bring him to estate sale (he likes these kinds of things)
11:00 - retrieve Punkin from Mandarin class
11:15 - go to Silicon Valley Open Studios to see my friend Moose's really great artwork (stopping first at a library booksale - more on that later). Hang out with Moose for a little while until Buddy started to come apart at the seams.
12:00 - go to Costco (always a good idea on a Saturday) to buy some groceries and grab a quick lunch.
1:30 - home, unload the car, try to get Buddy to nap (hasn't worked yet).
That brings us to now, 3:27. The kids are watching TV (it's part of the nap attempt process), the Italian is sacked out on the bed, and I'm sneaking a minute to do this.

What's left for today? A trip to the Computer History Museum that we had tentatively planned is probably out. We may still try to go to the WWII Trainers event at the Hiller Aviation Museum that Buddy would love. And we're due at a party tonight at 5:30, for which we still have to prepare food to bring.

Not all Saturdays are this busy, but enough of them are!
