today i went to newton abbot. i had never been to newton abbot before. grdad told me to ask mom if she wanted to go, so i did. mom said- why yes, i'd like to go. grdad drove me, jammma and mom in the car. the direction lady told us which way to go since grdad had never been there before either. there was lots of 'recalculating; at the next roundabout take the right exit.'
newton abbot is not the most exciting place in the world. grdad and i got dragged along by mom and jammma to every charity shop around. one after the other. i did a bit of complaining and mom told me off. i found a few things that i wanted to take home but mom said- no. then i showed them to jammma and said- please buy this for me while jumping up and down. mom really scowled at me then. lucky for me looks can not kill.
at lunch time jamma said- shame there isn't a subway and mom was all- yes there is, it's this way... mom led us to the subway and we all had tasty 5 a day samiches for special treat. mom shared her soda with me and i got to eat potato chips. i shared mom's veggie delight samich, she made sure to get extra onions. just how i like it. i also had a bite of jammma's sub and stole some of her olives. grdad hooked me up with a toasted cheese slice too, so i was pretty full after lunch.
after subway we all headed over to asda. i wasn't so sure since it's a different asda then what i am used to, at first i didn't want to go in. but i did and checked it out. it's a big asda, lots of things to look at. i helped grdad put things in the cart and then we were done. mom did her own shopping and met us back at the car when she was done.
we left newton abbot and went home to exeter. mom was all- we'll get home just in time for naps. NAPS? i don't want a nap. mom was all- too bad, we're all having a nap. jammma said she thought that sounded like a great idea so i was pretty much screwed. we all had stupid naps, except grdad. he made a huge fruit salad while the rest of us slept.
got up from my nap and mom was all- how would you like to go visit erin and mr greg's house tonight? they've invited us all over for a delicious dinner. so right on, i'm going to a dinner party.
erin's and greg's was pretty cool. their new house is pretty nice. they have a massive tv and i got to watch my pingu dvd on it. pingu was almost as big as me! everyone stuffed themselves with greg's cooking. i tried a green bean. it was ok in that i ate the whole thing but i didn't want more than 1. erin and i took turns tickling each other and laughing hysterically. she showed me her plants. she has a plant that eats bugs! what kind of world is this? plants that eat bugs. how strange. she also has a plant made out of spiders. well i guess it is, she said it was called a spiderplant. i had a really good time. now it's super late so i better get to bed
