I got rid of a bunch of boxes today!
I also got EE-oo out, per the kids' request. I was worried that it wasn't going to work for a few minutes, but then I popped one of the batteries back in. Oh - Isaac ended up with a fever at 4:30am so stayed home from school. He felt mostly fine all day, but has lost his voice.
Isaac woke up complaining of a sore throat, and after church said he had a little headache. We had lunch, I took a nap, and after I woke up Isaac's voice was even more scratchy. He started walking distractedly walking around the dining room. He's a teen boy, and he does this some times. I told him to go take his temperature - expecting it to come back normal. Well, it came back at 100.4F. Well, that meant he couldn't go to the get together tonight. :(
The get together was nice - it always is.
Isaac's temperature was normal right before bed. His voice was worse though.
This morning I brought the futon mattress and non-working mini fridge to the monthly trash collection. I was a bit nervous because I've never done one of these before, but it, unsurprisingly, went just fine. And then I was really glad to have that stuff out of the house! Monday morning I'll be getting rid of some of the other donation boxes. Yay!
Besides that, it was a pretty normal day. Legos, a bike ride, nap, game, D&D.
The drive into school has been rough lately: the sun is at just the right angle to match the stop lights, the sun is directly in my eyes, and I always seem to end up at the front of the line for red lights.
But then today we were behind a small dump truck. I have never been so happy to be behind a truck before.
Then, after dropping the kids off I hit a whole bunch of green lights. It was lovely.
I got a lot of things done today! I guess most of them were pretty short, but they needed to be done nevertheless.
I had coffee with Pat and we took a short walk; it was nice.
Karate was ok. There was a twenty minute karate discussion in the middle. It was on-topic, but I wasn't exercising during that time.
