Week 15

Hello and welcome back.  It's another Tuesday and this year is flying by.  Only 1 1/2 months until school is out and 2 months before Tyler comes home for summer.  It seems like the school year just started--so crazy how time flies. 

Here are last week's pictures:

Day 99- Monday, 4/9/18

I heard about this book from an on-line group and just had to get a copy.  I know Goodnight Moon by heart from reading it to the boys when they were younger and this is a great, nicely-done parody for us lab people. My favorite part is "post-it notes on the lab coat"--that is so me ;0)

Day 100- Tuesday, 4/10/18

I was texting with my college boy today who was wondering about his state EMT card.  He took to the test for the national registry over Christmas break but didn't get the paperwork back in time to apply for state certification before starting his next school quarter.  Thankfully he was able to continue the process over spring break and is waiting on the official word and card.  Turns out it was sitting in our mailbox when I checked later this afternoon!  He's now able to work as an EMT which will hopefully be how he spends his summer this year.  What a long process just to get here.  It's almost been a year in the making but will be worth it eventually.

Day 101- Wednesday, 4/11/18

Evening antics.  The boys are hardly ever downstairs with us after dark but Justin got home late from a track meet and John popped some popcorn which lured Brandon down. Then there's the cat who was happy to have some warm flannel pj's to rub on for this cold, rainy night.  I'm not sure why Justin propped himself against the wall like that but whatever.  I think maybe it's because he only plans on staying long enough to finish his snack and doesn't want to get comfortable.  There's homework still to be done.

Day 102- Thursday, 4/12/18

This afternoon I was able to chaperone on a field trip with Brandon's class to see Finding Neverland at the Sacramento Music Theater.  It was done really well, funny, and a great thing for the kids to see and experience.  They even had a live dog in on stage that stole the show.

Day 103- Friday, 4/13/18

Someone just got home from his second track meet this week and is cold and wet and ready for a break.  These meets are so long--dare I say worse than swimming.  At lest there is no homework for tonight.  TGIF!

Day 104- Saturday, 4/14/18

John is experimenting with his new toy.  He got this fancy turntable for his birthday last week and is happy to have more time this weekend to give it a try.

Day 105- Sunday, 4/15/18
I recently noticed a distinct line of white hairs growing across Bella's hind paw.  She did get her foot caught in her pen trying to escape a couple months ago so I guess she must have damaged the hair follicles in the process. It just looks funny all in a line like that.  Crazy girl--keeps us all on our toes.  She's forever an escape artist but is getting too old to pull stunts like this.

That's all for this week.  Thanks for checking in and hope to see you next week.
