Just another random Wednesday

Last weekend was recital weekend and it was a family event. Everyone except Aidan (3yrs old) was in the shows and the costume prep, rehearsal and actual shows pretty much ate up the weekend and part of the previous week. So here we are on Wednesday with some fairly unrelated thoughts.
1. Here are my daughters, Erin and Megan, all set for their ballets. Lovely ladies!
2. Here is the device that gets the Worse-Use-of-Equipment Award for the weekend. This circa 1963 fan installed at the door by well meaning custodians was supposed to be used to cool the dressing room for the little kids. (As tradition dictates, the day of the dance recital must be hot and ridiculously muggy. How hot and muggy was it you may well ask? It was so hot and muggy that changing costumes was like trying to peel gum from summer asphalt.) The fan was large enough to suck in not only fluffy costumes but the small children occupying them. Yikes!
PS: For an added element of danger, it was on wheels which made it incredibly unsteady. Oh, yeah despite fan blades turning at a rate that would make an F16 proud -- no cooling was had from said fan.
3. A rather unfortunate way to cut the cake at the kindergarten tea.....
.
4. Knitting note: The azaleas are blooming and the hedgies are multiplying!
