• Robby left early this morning to go to his dgroup with some friends. I was awake when he left and probably should have gotten out of bed then or at least when my alarm went off the first or second time, but man, it sure was difficult.
• I did get up in time to get the morning going; however, I didn't get the laundry folded so that had to be done during school. This put me behind so I was still pulling out school for next week around 1. I was the last one done with school today for sure.
• Robby and I left with Reagan to get gas in the mini van and suburban on her way to work. While we were gone, everyone else went outside to play football for a bit. Keaton, who has another slightly sprained ankle, and Graham's team won. Anderson did run right into Whitman and tried to catch him as he fell. Whitman's version was that Anderson knocked him down and drug him one he had fallen. I am not sure Whitman was much fun after that because he then said his vision was going in and out. (That sounds a bit concerning, but he's all good.)
• Robby and I walked around Costco after getting him gas. He needed some new pants, and we racked up on new things that wont' fall off of him. They had a few sales so that helped. They also had quite a few samples today-though the sample of seaweed salad is one that I wish I did not take. I was just trying to be polite, but I had to resist the urge to spit it out in the trashcan. It tasted like pickled grass.
• Back at home, Campbell, Keaton, Anderson, and I played Code Names. I believe that we tied-that is a pretty fun game, and we are definitely getting a little bit quicker at it.
• We had started supper late thinking that Reagan would be home, but she was a bit late so we ate with out her. Today she started going in a 3:30 until 6:30, but they have asked her to start coming 4:30 until 7:30. I guess that is what she will start doing-it does help on her quick turnaround after school.
• After supper, the kids all disappeared, and now I may try to read some of my book. (Library report-their system was still down today when Robby drove by on his way home. This is the second full day that we know of that they haven't been able to check books out at least from their book locker. My book situation is getting serious so hopefully it will all be working tomorrow!)
