Sunday: vaccines and leaves

The boys got their first COVID vaccine shot today!  I was so excited.  I don't think the boys were, but whatever.

I took a picture afterwards.  Joshua wasn't in a great mood, so I just told him he had to stand there.  It worked and really, ended up being a rather funny picture.

During Bible Study the boys played in the leaves for a while and had a great time.

At the end of the day Isaac was still feeling pretty good.  Joshua was rather out of it.  I did give him some medicine because he wasn't acting right and I want him to sleep well.  It's hard to tell if it was the vaccine or if it was due to time change.

Saturday: the day

 "My name is Joshu-ow-ow-ow".  

I'm not sure what Joshua was doing, but my guess is that he was crazily moving around while saying this and then bumped into something.

We also played games online with Brian and Amy tonight, and that was very nice.  We haven't talked for a while, so the little bit of catch-up we did was fun.

Friday: how to draw a penguin

Joshua came home yesterday excited about a penguin he had drawn in class.  So he had to make instructions on how to make it.

Thursday: cat

 

(I took another look at the vaccine appointments.  Walgreens is mainly scheduling out for about nine days from now, so I'm glad it's gotten busier.  You could get one a bit earlier, but it'd involve taking a kid out of school and going about 30 min.)

Wednesday: appointments

Well, with the CDC granting emergency approval for kids 5-11yrs to get the COVID vaccine, it was a race to get an appointment!  Well, only kind of.  At 10:30am when I looked the Saturday appointments at Walgreens were all gone, but there were plenty on Sunday.  At 11:30 all the Sunday appointments were gone.  Earlier this evening there were still a bunch of appointments for Monday.  So that's ...good and bad.  

I also finally got the bathroom vent fixed after a year.  It fell out.  But it is in the ceiling, so it made it a bit more complicated.

We had our first snow last night.  I wasn't really expecting it, and it stayed around longer than I expected.  It hasn't been that cold, but it was just starting to melt at 10:30.

Isaac's sandwich bread had some gigantic holes in it.  So I made it interesting.

Tuesday: rice cooker

Seriously, after forgetting to start the rice cooker so many times you'd think I'd double check and make sure it's on.  But no.  I continue to forget to start the rice cooker time after time.

Monday: Operation: Clean the House - office closet

I know I haven't talked about O:CtH much lately.  It's still been going, it's just at a slow stage.  There's been a lot of fabric sorting.  I've also had a bit of a hard time figuring out what to work on next...but it all needs to be looked at, so I guess that hasn't been too much of a problem.

Anyway, today I started the office closet.  I had been planning on working on this near the end, but I suddenly changed.  I'm not really sure why I chose to work on the closet today, but does feel like it was a good idea.  There was a lot of minky that was overflowing and has been organized into bins.  I also found some big pieces of minky, so that's good for future quilts.  I've also ordered some closet organizers, although they won't show up until next week.  I'll continue emptying the closet this week and move on to something else if I need to.
