When I read about the eclipse set for tonight three days ago I got inordinately excited. That the children are on spring break and thus able to stay awake for the show just proved to me that we were meant to see this! I had grandiose plans of the children inside sipping cocoa by the window while I sat outside in the cold, camera on the tripod, taking pictures like this:

I Google’d lunar eclipses and explained in detail why the moon was eclipsing and just why it is so rare. It is quite obvious that Stuperman, at the ripe old age of three, is already smarted than I am, when he argued vehemently tonight that Mr. Moon was just playing hide and seek.

Ahhhnyway. In reality, I refused to let the children drink Cocoa in the living room, they bitched that if they drink it in the kitchen they couldn’t see out the window to watch, so the cocoa was tossed down the drain. And my tripod steadied pictures?

WooFuckingHoo

Lucky for me, I remembered that handy husband type dude I keep stashed in the storage closet off the furnace room. I kicked him off the computer dusted him off, handed him the camera and said Pretty Please.

He took this

And then this :

and this one:

And. Sigh. This one too :

Oh! And this one! He took this one too!! :

What? He’s not perfect you know.

(But he’s damn near close)

I called the office. My ultrasound  results are not in, but she had the results of the mammogram in her hand. They are sending me a copy - BUT- she told me that there is a note on the bottom of my results that says NORMAL.
