today's been ok. mom and i got up this morning. well mom got up first. by the time i got up dad had already left. mom said she shouted me a few times but i didn't hear anything. oh well. i'll just have to hang out with dad tonight.
mom and i had a nice lazy morning. we ate breakfast. today i got cinnamon crunchie oatie pillows. mom is trying to get me something different to eat each morning. i wonder what i'll find in my bowl tomorrow. watch some pbs kids while mom tried to figure out what to do with the day.
eventually mom decided we should visit some charity shops. we visited the humane society one today. we've never been before. it's pretty big. i followed mom around while she poked around in piles of stuff. she dug out a couple pots and some kind of glass bowl/dish thing. mom said it was something called pyrex. we looked at books and toys. i tried to talk mom into getting me a dartboard with no darts but she wasn't having any of it. but mom, but mom, but mom, but mom. no buts, i said no. eye roll
mom paid for her stuff and off we went to 2 other shops: the salvation army and goodwill. neither of those shops really had anything good. we poked around none the less.
we finished up looking at stuff and went grocery shopping. i sat in the cart while mom picked up a few things. nothing super exciting. unless you find broccoli exciting. mom says she's going to toss it in dad's stir fry for dinnertime.
got home just in time for peanut butter samiches. mom decided that we should do the laundry. she gathered up all the dirty clothes and we went over to the laundry room. i got to push the coin slider in to start the machine. that's my job. mom stuffed all the clothes in the machine and off we went to the little park next to the pool. mom checked the mail on our way to the park. i got a package from england. wheee-heee.
mom said i couldn't open the package until we went home so i just ran around the park and played. i dug in the sand a bit. i buried acorns. it's not the most exciting park. finally mom said we could go check the laundry, so back we went.
mom put the wet clothes into a dryer and i got to push the coin slider again to start the machine. since the dryer takes a super long time mom said we could go home. got home and mom noticed my feet were covered in sand. she told me to just jump right in the bathtub. so i had a bath. there was lots of shrieking and screaming. i don't like the shampoo mom bought. she says it's for baby's and the bottle says no more tears. i still don't like it. i got clean in the end though.
after my bath mom let me have the package from england. it had a really fun magazine with mr tumble and picture of jammma and grdad in it and some other pictures too. i read the magazine and played while mom worked in the kitchen.
we went back out and got our clean dry laundry. on the way back to our house mom spotted a dead lizard on the path. i ran over to poke it. it's dead mom! and then i picked it up and brought it over to show her. mom was all- yes, it's dead, you're not supposed to pick them up though, you're supposed to wait until we get a bag. so i carried the lizard up the stairs and mom got a container to put him in. i had to get my hands scrubbed.
and that's been my day. i had a good dinner. mom and i watched back to the future3. mom did work in the kitchen while i played with my friends. dad got home a few minutes ago so i'm going to hang out with him now
