Red letter day

D. is finally beginning to understand my outrage at the current administration and "our" president. He just watched Farhenheight 9/11 and the comments he was making to the tv cracked me up. He didn't vote in the last election, I bet he votes in the next one!

Today was a red letter day for another reason, I made soap for the first time since September! I'd been so busy making body butter, lip balms, bubble bath, etc that I didn't make any soap. Well today I made a fabulous batch of vanilla/rosewood/patchouli and it went like a dream. I still got it! And I discovered I still love making soap as much as I did the first time. It's just so damn cool, figuring out which oils I want to use, calculating the lye, mixing it up, deciding on color and scent and finally pouring and nailing the swirl! I feel like there should be some Olympic judges holding up 10's for me tonight.

We also went to see N. play soccer and they won. She's going to a sleepover at some friends whose blogs I read so I'll know tomorrow how much drinking, etc went on. I asked D. if we could ground N. based on what her friend's blogs say? haha, I just hope she's careful and there's no drinking and driving. D. is still convinced she doesn't do anything bad, ever. Dad's are great, aren't they?
