day 2...

picture this...
i figured out how to get into anne's
photo files...i know...HACKER! :)
here's one of her and owen-my youngest
brother's son, last fall (i think).
and here's one from clearly a great seat
at an eric clapton concert...






g'day mates....
amanda had a small melt down last night
over missing her mom. expected. so i
had her sleep with me. she fell right to
sleep.
i forgot to mention the 3rd girl that i
am watching...no, not my mom (altho' she
does live here too), it's "sugar", their
bihrman (sp?) cat. she is such a sweetie.
she gets me up in the morning. so funny.

big day yesterday. a cereal breakfast,
a target run for some of amanda's
school supplies. that was interesting.
never did find the large,10 pack
of basic color-crayola-WASHABLE-markers.
pizza hut pizza for lunch @ target.
then we had a pool day. 80-sunny, nice.
emily's hair has finally turned a fine shade
of lima bean green. yuck. nothing that a
little "logics 10RO" (hair color) can't handle.
just something i learned at rocco altobelli
years ago.

God forgive me, i actually ate a mcdonald's
last night. we took the girls there before
amanda's final t-ball game at 6.
now THAT was funny! i can't wait to have my
laptop and get some photos up here!

then, we thought we'd go for the trifecta
and stop at maggie moo's (a local "cold
stone creamery" type of ice cream shop).
the only other place in the world that beats
a scoop of vanilla ice cream for 5 bucks
is the haagan daz in playa del carmen mexico
where they get a cool $6.50! can you stand it?!

had to stop at a store and get some real food!
fruit, chicken, yogurt, soy creamer-love that.
when the girls and i came out mom was talking to
anne & pete on my phone.
they were calling from his computer...
don't ask, all i know is that it's 2 cents a minute!

from the time they left the house to the time
they got to their hotel...it had been 28 hours.
AND it was the start of tuesday...they never
had a monday, on earth. they missed it! weird.
all was well, thank you God for watching over
them, keep it up!

bed was late again..10-10:15...yikes, gonna
pay for that sooner or later.
slept better.
