• It was super cold this morning so I when I heard Marley whining I laid super still until Robby got up and took her out. It is no secret because he knew exactly what I was doing since I made it clear last night I was going to do ignore the dog in the morning. Unfortunately, I still had to get up and go to the bathroom so I couldn't lay in the bed too long.
• I had forgotten to start the dishes last night when we went to bed. Our fancy dishwasher has a one hour setting which is normally what it is set to. However, when I started the dishwasher this morning, it reverted back to the default because the power had been out. The default is heavy wash so it took at least 4 hours to wash those dishes-I could have washed them quicker by hand.
• We did the school thing this morning. It all went fairly smoothly. I was excited because Whitman received some new science in the mail. We did one of the lessons today, but I really need more glue sticks to finish-and I should have gotten some more tonight when I was at Walmart. Oh, well, I'm sure we will be back tomorrow.
• Graham and Campbell went to work this afternoon, and they even had to call 911 on the way there. A car had been following Graham closely on Lawson, so after he turned on the next street he was looking at the car. The next thing he saw was the car flipping three times. They did stop and called 911 (I made sure that Campbell knew that she was not to stop at all when she is by herself.) The people were fine but a little shaken up. I hate that the wreck happened, but I'm glad that the kids saw it because it will be a good reminder for them to slow down!
• Campbell and Graham finished work early so once home, it didn't take too long for Keaton and Campbell to decide that they wanted to go shopping. They left the house, but I'm not sure they really bought anything except for some candy. 
• Robby and I ate supper, and then we realized that I needed some veggies to cook for tomorrow's class meeting. We ran to the store and bought about 6 pounds of sweet potatoes and 5 pounds of green beans plus we delivered 3 people their groceries before coming home.
