today has been an ok kind of day. i had a good sleep. got up and mom made me a big bowl of crunchie pillows with honey. i ate my breakfast time all up and then had a banana. dad went to work. i played with my toys. mom and i got dressed.
mom said we had some chores to do. first stop was the post office. we mailed a few things off. the post office didn't take long. we managed to beat the morning rush of old people collecting their pensions and buying stamps.  mom was all- see, it pays to get to the post office early. stopped at a few charity shops we don't usually go to because they are so far off the usual route.
didn't find anything in the charity shops. mom said- how about we look at the map and have an adventure. ok. i like adventures. so we headed off. we walked and walked. i asked a million questions while we walked. finally we ended up at a park. whoo-hoo. i love parks. we went to belmount park or something like that. i've been there before but it was on a rainy day so i didn't get to do much. today the sun was kind of out and it hasn't been rainy for ages. all the toys were dry. i went on the huge twisty slide. i went on the big regular slide. then mom convinced me to check out the little kids side.
there was a great climbing thing and a wooden train engine at the little kids playground. i had a blast running around and climbing on stuff and then pretending to drive the train. some other kids came to play and kind of ruined my good time. i wanted to drive the train but then another little boy showed up and i had to share. meh. mom said it was time to do other stuff anyway.
mom and i went to check out the little flower garden. we took some pictures. there weren't many flowers. but i had fun using my new camera. when we were done doing pictures mom said i could pick one more thing to do before we left. i said- big slide. so i went on the big twisting slide a couple more times before mom dragged me off to do the shopping.
followed mom back to our side of town. we went to tesco and bought things on the list. then it was time to go back home.
nothing really exciting going on this afternoon. i ate my usual lunch. i watched some videos with mom. we've been watching school house rock. i'm learning about american history, grammar, math, money and science. my favorite video so far is about circulation. the heart pumps blood to the lungs and then around the body.
i had a nap even though i didn't want to. right now i'm supposed to be picking up my toys but i'm playing with them instead. hopefully soon dad will be home.
