Pulling together
14 May 2021 23:05Pulling together the last bits and pieces for Linnea's prom tomorrow night.
Well, it's not really prom, it's ticket to visit a museum after hours. No dancing, no food or drink allowed, no groups larger than five. They're not supposed to stay more than 90 minutes at the venue.
But, eh, she's got a pretty dress and pretty shoes. She got her hair cut today, and the neighbor girl, her longtime friend, is coming over to curl her hair and do her makeup. She's going with a rowing friend, her doubles partner, and they're buying each other flowers.
My biggest issue is figuring out how to feed them before and after, lol.
Hopefully, it'll be fun.
It looks like US Rowing is having an abbreviated/barely there version of regionals. Nothing like it should be, nobody who isn't rowing allowed at the park, most events not happening.
God, so much missed for the class of 2021. My kid left the high school in March of 2020 and never went back.
We missed out on so many little things, concerts and games, homecoming and a real prom, all the senior events that they should have had (at this point, graduation is happening, but it may be parents only), regionals for rowing two years in a row, real regattas, and the rowing banquet.
I HATE Trump. So much of this loss is his fault.
