Just Another Manic Monday…
I wish it was Sunday.?
Somehow, another week has passed! The days are going so fast I can’t even keep up.
Tuesday, Mike and I had a day date in Bloomington that was less than entertaining. We spent the whole day waiting as the racks on top of my car were replaced. However, we did have Chick-Fil-A. Chip also visited Doggy Daycare for the first time that day. He wasn’t entirely sure what to think about it! We are just doing a few random drop-ins to help socialize him and make him more comfortable around other dogs and people.
That evening, we were busy too, on our current super-secret mission. More on that in the future… 😉
Wednesday, Mike was also off work for golf sectionals. He was one of the coaches for the golf team. Bo and Clara didn’t make sectionals, but Mike still had to go to coach. Luckily, he has a plethora of vacation days that he needs to use before the end of the year, so another day off wasn’t a big deal. The trio also got in a bit of trouble on Wednesday, as chores have not been being done very consistently since school started. When I went down to the girls’ bathroom and found this mess, it was time for some discussion. They were not thrilled to have two days without any tech!
On Thursday, Chip had his last puppy check-up and shots at the vet. We don’t have to go back until November when it is time for him to be neutered.
Saturday, the trio had the gym in the morning and we spent the rest of the day prepping to have friends over for dinner. We made tortellini and had such a fun time. The kids were thrilled to have friends over and Chip even had a friend over too – his buddy Mitch! It was a truly enjoyable evening and I know I will continue to appreciate these get-togethers even more in the future since we went for so long without being able to entertain.
Sunday was another busy day with our super-secret mission. We did get home in time for Mike to mow, but otherwise, the day was consumed with our mission. I can’t wait to be able to share it with all of you — but I’m waiting until I actually have an outcome!
