Buffalo Wild Wings no longer has tater tots. This is a bit of a tragedy. I love tater tots. Recently they also discontinued the orange chicken, which was Isaac's favorite. They still have good stuff, but at the same time I won't be as excited about getting food from there.
I have a cough/cold today. I managed to get a lot done this morning, so much that I was even a bit surprised about it, but then this afternoon I got pretty much nothing done. Ben is very sick. Isaac also has a cold. Hopefully Joshua doesn't get sick.
I made a Gatorade tower!
The kids, as Trojans, participated in Trunk Or Treat at church. They hung out with the youth group, so I just dropped them off and picked them up. It was a beautiful day for the activity, but I was also glad to just go home in the middle.
Tonight Joshua and I took a short walk down the road to look at some Halloween decorations. There's one house that looks really cool at night, but I'm never driving with Joshua there when it's dark. The weather has been holding out for us so we went today.
It was really nice. It was a nice walk with Joshua. and nice time looking at the decorations (and there were a lot!)
Friday was a normal mail day in a purple state: 5 pieces of mail, all from politicians. All straight into the recycle. (While the text/phone calls are more annoying, I feel like all this mail is so wasteful.)
I brought the kids to Peach Wave after school. I didn't really want to go but Joshua was so, so excited about it.
Saturday Isaac was at a robotics competition all day (7:30am-9:30pm). Apparently the comp went much slower than normal, because the expected schedule had Isaac finish at 7pm. Joshua and I went to watch for a few hours in the afternoon - Isaac's team made it to the semi-finals. We had a fun time watching. Isaac wasn't feeling great after eating a very late dinner, but said it was good otherwise. He wasn't very talkative on the way home.
I can tell I'm feeling better. I'm just moving and fidgeting more. I went to karate and that went pretty well too.
Beyond that, the day wasn't very exciting. I just worked on my chores. Even grocery shopping didn't have any interesting observations.
It was a busier day today than I was expecting. Midterm grades needed to be turned in, which meant a bit of grading, plus the normal class plans, plus getting stuff ready for Thursday, plus a few extra emails. I also ate lunch with Dad, but that is more of a fun thing than a busy thing.
It ended up working out well though - I just stayed at Hope an extra hour and then went to pick up Joshua from school, since he has art club on Tuesdays.
Besides that though, it was a pretty normal day. My book is taking a bit of a lull. It isn't bad right now and I'm still sitting down to read it at random times, but the story feels like a bit more of the same and that I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop. There's also a love interest that just feels weird. Maybe it's that way on purpose but still odd.
