• I woke up at 4 this morning to go to the bathroom. I guess I was still sleeping a bit, because I just kept thinking about how I am usually not awake at 4. Sometime I wake up at 3 or 5 but never 4. I thought that was the oddest thing last night! (I probably need some more sleep to be that impressed with waking up at 4 in the morning.)
• This was a fairly easy first day back at school. Campbell was already awake when I went to go and wake up Keaton and Whitman. Then Graham wasn't too hard to wake up. He started his Spanish class today so it took a bit to get his book downloaded, but other than that things went smoothly.
• Campbell and I went to renew her driver's license this afternoon. While we were on the way home, she suggested that we go and take a Walmart order. We did and not only did we take one, but we did two. 
• We had fun shopping and delivering for someone else, but Keaton didn't have any fun staying with the dogs back at the house. Marley is really still a two person job.  Campbell would have stayed out longer doing more deliveries, but I had to come home to relieve Keaton and to work with Whitman.
• When we came home, I finished school with Whitman. Then when Robby came in, I left with him to go and do a few more shopping trips some more. I guess just the mention of snow has this town going crazy. There were orders left and right. This was actually Robby's highest total day from all of his years of doing his side gigs.
• We were out for a bit and stopped at the Wilson's house on the way home. Once at home, we caught the end of the ballgame and went through all of the mail. Now, we are trying to keep Marley up a little bit longer before it is bedtime for all of us.
