Nutcracker: the saga begins

What a mix of a day. Here's the "had tea with Mrs. Jones" breakdown, then:
Got up, went to gym for a quick workout.
Fed S. breakfast.
Started a food delivery (4th year delivering weekly boxes on a rotational basis to low-income families).
Picked up R. from the retreat.
Returned cleaned dishes to the other moms.
Met D. at the cafe near S's ballet class, where he was waiting after dropping her off.
D. & R. left so he could take her to horseback riding.
I had breakfast and wrote a few words toward the novel.
Picked up S. from class.
Finished food delivery.
Picked up lunch for S. & while she ate, at home, I braided her hair for Nutcracker pictures.
Took the empty food delivery boxes back on the way back to the ballet school, where I was on duty for make-up for the lambs, Gingerbread cookies, Crystal sprites and Chinese Tea who were getting their pictures done. S. was among the batch of Gingies being photographed.
Five hours later, came home with S.
Was stupid enough to lie down at around 5:30.
Did not wake up except to move from bed to couch and sleep through dinner.
Did not move again except to go back to bed.

Additional novel word count: about 20 words.
Falling behind, but doing so shamelessly.
