I never did make it to the cottage, after lunch we headed to the hardware store to pick up some fix-it supplies. We found, not everything we were looking for, but did get some of the needed supplies, washers to fix the shower, buckets to haul dirt, clippers to cut big branches and a New Guinea Impatiens in shocking pink to put on the plant stand by the front door. Not orange like Grandma's but a remembrance of her anyway. We patched a spot on the roof we hope will fix the leak that has been plaguing us. TR fixed the shower handle as best he could. I carried some of the donation station stuff downstairs and did the yard cleanup I mentioned earlier. It was a busy and productive day and I think we have both earned a good night's rest!
Primo had his last fall ball of the season, and I saw him run downfield and assist a goal, the last goal of the scrimmage. It was fun to watch, and I think he was proud of himself. I think he is really starting to understand effort and how it relates to skill and talent.
So I am off to tuck my kids into a LATE bedtime and go to sleep myself. Goodnight!
Going with Moomintroll again and thinking of TD! |
sounds like a lovely day.
