today was alright. i had a really good sleep in. i didn't get up until almost 8.30pm. dad was long gone. mom stuffed some breakfast in me and i flopped down on the couch. gotta watch my morning shows. mom lets me get away with that because PBSkids is pretty educational.
at 9 mom was all- get dressed we're doing chores today. eye roll. but i want to watch cat in the hat. mom doesn't care. she got me dressed and loaded up all the dirty laundry into her bag. we stomped over to the laundry room. mom put the dirty clothes into the machines. i pushed the money in. while the clothes splashed around mom and i went out to the little park. i ran around and dug in the sand for a bit.
mom checked her watch and said it was time to put clothes in the dryer. so we went back inside and did that. i pushed the coins into the machines and pressed the on button. the dryers take a long time so mom said we could go back to the house to wait.
back to the house we went. mom went to work tidying up my room. i guess she got tired of waiting for me to do it. she's only been on my case for like 4days to pick up all the toys. i decided to play her some music so i got out the piano and played mom a tune while she worked. mom was not really impressed. i think that was more to do with how i kept asking her how the cleaning was going. are you having fun? it's not bad is it? cleaning is going ok, right? i like to taunt mom.
the room got cleaned up enough so i'm not tripping over things every step i take. cool. mom said it was time to collect the clothes so we went back to the laundry room. mom stuffed all the clean clothes back in the bag and lugged them home. i jumped around while mom folded the clothes and put them away. i'm not really much help.
had some lunch and hung out. mom let me watch peppa while she worked in the kitchen trying to get the dishes clean.
around 3 mom said it was time to go out and do things. what things? what are we doing? mom wouldn't tell me, she said it's a surprise. so i got dressed and mom drove me off in the car. we didn't go far, just down the road. we're going to the grocery store? that's not much of a surprise. but then mom didn't turn into the grocery store. are we going to a kid's place? what are we doing?
mom pulled up to a building and we got out. we went through a door into a weird room. what is this place? mom said the girl behind the counter would tell me all about it. today you're going to learn about taekwondo. longduckdong? what? what's going on and why is the girl wearing black jammies? what's that matt for?
mom sat on the side in a chair while this girl talked to me. she showed me where to put shoes, i'm not supposed to wear shoes on the matt. then she showed me how to bow. there was lots of bowing. bow to the matt, bow to the flag, bow to your partner now dos-e-doe and back home again. no that's square dancing. i did have to bow to the girl though. then i had to stand on a dot and flap my arms about. after the flapping i got to kick i peace of paper. then i had to sit, quietly and focus. focusing is not my strong point. she girl said a lot about focusing and being good and listening. eye rolling. then she was done talking and the lesson was done.
the girl and mom talked a bit. mom got a bundle of papers to bring home. i've got a homework sheet to fill out. i have to do things like- clean my room, brush my teeth, pick up toys. all things mom tries to make me do anyway. homework should be pretty easy. the girl said if i do my homework i get stripes on my belt. i get a belt? the girl said i would get a belt next week, after i broke a board. YOU CAN'T BREAK A BOARD WITH YOUR HAND! mom said the girl would show me how. i'm going to break a board- WITH MY HAND!
oh man. mom and i left taekwondo and went across the street to the grocery store. we always end up at the grocery store. mom got a few things for dad's dinner and we went back home. i'm going to hang out and watch some more peppa pig. mom keeps threatening me with a bath. i don't want to take a bath.
