Ugh

Just re-read yesterday's posts of the trip, complete with typos. Just read between the lines, people. I was tired!

Today was back to Business as Usual. Meg went to work. The children and I made do. They played outside all afternoon. There were a few "I forgot's" when admonished to do some things. For instance, they filled the sandbox lid (upside down) with water--without permission--and were told to dump it when they were done playing in it. They didn't. They "forgot". Ryan was told to pick up some plastic bits from a broom that he broke. He "forgot". At one point, Ryan stuck his head in the door and started yelling, "Puppy! Puppy!" Robin went running. I was trying to call her back, but she didn't stop. A man was walking his dog. The children DID ask permission to pet it, but they don't know how to approach dogs. Robin got down to the dog's level...and even though the dog was on a leash, I got there just in time to see it lunge at Robin's face and start barking. I was mortified! We had a little talk about that...

For my part, I was washing bed linen. Ryan had wet the bed the last night before we left for Tennessee, so I had that facing me...and since ALL of the beds needed fresh linen, I washed it all. Put a few things away. Fixed dinner. Monitored the children. Supervised one bath and bedtime. Yet another day is done!
