World Without Friction
Jun. 12th, 2022 04:12 pmI've been feeling pretty ground down this weekend, so I'm glad that Julie has been taking the lead on watching kid today, even though I feel guilty that my contribution has been limited to doing a million laundry. Generally it's been a very tiring week.
Next week is the last week of kindergarten for Eris. (Should I keep calling Erica "Eris" here? I pretty much don't use the nickname IRL, so it's gotten awkward. I'm probably going to stop trying to be consistent about it.) After that, she's doing a week of the daycamp at Boston Bouldering Project, a week of going with just Julie to visit Juile's parents, and then Sandy Island Camp. Assuming nothing completely derails all of our plans.
The literacy improvements have started to come really fast for Erica, she's really starting to sound out a lot more words, sight-read a lot more words, and she's reading complete books on her own. (Still picture books, but well beyond the "baby book" level.) Writing and arithmetic skills have advanced as well.
What else: I finished watching the second season of Ghost in the Shell: SAC_2045, I thought it was good. And I watched Baby Driver, a stylish heist movie that made great use of its soundtrack.
