Today was another one of those days commuting to work when I didn't ride with my husband. He had a meeting down past Manassas. He also thought he would be nice and turn off my alarm so I could sleep in. Not helpful. The twins were beside me in bed and I looked up at the clock and it was 8:45 am. What a way to start my morning. Drove to the bus and rode the bus to the metro and rode the metro into work. There was one catch, the train got stuck in the tunnel right before my station. We sat in there a really long time, well it seemed pretty long. 15 min. When the train doesn't move the air conditioning doesn't circulate. We were all really uncomfortable. When I finally got off the train and to surface streets, I saw a coffee shop on the corner. I ran in and got a mocha frappuccino while I was waiting for the bus to take me 8 blocks to try and cool down from the already hot city temperature of 95 degrees. By the time I got to my office it was 11:45am. Obviously I have to do the whole thing in reverse this evening.
This week we are in charge of the garden at our shul. Tonight we have to try and re-stake all of the tomato plants. They are so heavy they pulled the stakes out of the ground. I also need to find a good recipe for carne asada. Miss Busy is getting her first tooth finally and she has also figured out how to pull up on the side of the playpen. She is too short to reach over which is a good thing because I can picture her trying to climb over the side.
