Today is the beginning of another school period, until Chinese New Years where we will have maybe 2 whole weeks without school!
Anyhow that's off the topic. Today while I was giving Broderick Math, and prepping Ryan for an upcoming spelling test, Broderick looks out the window and declares loudly "THE CAT IS BACK AGAIN!"
Apparently there was a cat he was keeping an eye out for in order to feed her.
He nearly leaped out of his seat, and after a reminder to ask to be excused, and doing so, he shot off to Mommy's room.

She gave the green light that after he finished his school he can go out and feed the cat, and he was off with Bella's dog food (love how earnest he gets sometimes).
He finished school lightning fast, and was bundled up as soon as you could count to 60.
A few minutes later, out of the corner of my eye I saw a bundled Broderick zipping by so quick after a patch of orange.
Soon after that he was hollering excitedly that "I CAUGHT THE CAT!"
Picture
There was so much triumph in the way he held the cat, and the cat looked placidly content in his arms.
She was named Curry, and allowed to sniff out the house and make her way around. Broderick ran to Michelle to ask if they could keep Curry (he kept getting mixed up calling her Milo and Curry). Michelle said the classic 'if your dad says yes we can' so he was off again. Big Phil said we could keep her for a while.
There was much rejoicing.

Once school was done, lunch was eaten and their chores done. It was some intense playing with Curry time.
Broderick had the idea of introducing Curry to Bella, and Bella got a punch on the nose.

And that was the excitingness that was getting Curry.

On a different Topic.

Recently it's been pretty active on the exercise front. Have played basketball again, and managed to shoot a few hoops, played badminton and received praise from my Phil (which is pretty good, because he's actually really good) and today I did...dundun! 60 push-ups in sets of 10. Yea pretty proud of myself there.
Then I did some hoola hoop, while listening to music, and even though it's not anything really intense exercise wise, it was enough to keep me warm in my jogging jacket and T-shirt underneath.
Yay. Happy Nina.
