I need a clone!!!


Today was a very busy day for me and the crew.  It started this morning at 10am with Zuri going to Coachlight Skating Rink for skating lessons with her aunt C.C. and cousin Jelani.  Then Dee had a track meet that started at 9 (even though he didn't run until after 12.  Before any of that could happen though, Zuri had to clean her room and I had to make her breakfast.  I'll tell you what, trying to get that girl out of the house on time is a huge challenge!!  She wants to look around and play with her toes and she's walking slow and she wants to watch me cook and I'm like "HEY, GO GET YOUR BUTT IN THE SHOWER!!"  Then 2 minutes late she is back again showing me this non existent scratch on her and so on and so on!!  Eventually she did eat and get in the shower. We made to the skating rink about 10 minutes late, but we were right behind her aunt.  From there I had to rush across town to Clayton High and meet my mom for Dee's track meet.  Now when we went on Thursday there was no admission, but today its 5 bucks for adults and do you think either of us had any money?  NO!!  So we stood outside the gate and watched for about an hour.  While we were standing there, Dee walked over and informed us that he wasn't going to be running for quite some time, which was cool because we needed to leave and go pick up Zuri from her aunt at a park near my house, so back across town we went.  We stopped and got food, stopped by the house to get the other camera and headed to the park.  Zuri and Jelani had a blast!!  They played on the swings, the monkey bars and the slides.  After about an hour of them playing, Zuri, my mom and I left C.C. and Jelani and headed back across town to finally see Dee run!!  He metaled in 3 events, so he was pretty happy and we were proud.  He piled on the bus with his team mates, I took my and Zuri home and I headed to Dee's school to pick him up and give him a ride home.  Now that we are home, Zuri is outdoors playing and mom is going to babysit for me while I go and host a poetry show!!  Now I'm off to hit the shower!!
