The cat returns

Friday

I got up around 8. I got ready for the day. I checked messages. I got out the frog pattern and beans. I made the frog, noting that it was hard to sew all the curves, and turn inside out. Also there was a lot of clipping involved. Maybe not the best choice for kids. Too late. I posed the frog and took pictures. Then I posted the class announcement to Facebook. I also posted for Project Night.

I walked down to the post office to get the mail. Then I stopped in at the swap shop to say hello and see what was up. They were talking about the new commandment to register all kids at CYS. During, we saw a mouse run through the shop.

I went home and made breakfast. I listened to Mike Adams while eating. I talked to Chris on the phone about the new policy. I laid out in the sun for awhile. I mowed part of the lawn. I put more peanut butter in the bucket traps. I checked messages and read e-mail. I washed up and put on fresh clothes. I worked on my blog while waiting for Michelle to pick me up.

She drove me to the barracks where the German army contingent was having a barbecue. We hung out, then Emily showed us the lumpia she brought. We had some of that. Michelle had brought three bottles of varied really hot sauces. I tried two drops of one on a bite of hamburger. One lady ate a spoonful of it and it had an effect. They told her to drink milk. Then Michelle tried some. She was affected too but is allergic to dairy and gluten so she just drank water.

Then we joined a table of guys from the fire department. I had a long chat with one of them about turning the golf range into a fishing spot. Then we went inside again and she talked to their head guy about table games for Sunday night.

Finally she took me home. I changed clothes, intending to work outside but stayed on the internet too long. Chris texted me from the airport. I worked on my blog, then changed clothes again and went to game night.

Casey was there and he got Myst V going. He sat in a chair reading as I played. Then Michelle came home with one of the German soldiers. He wanted to know about fart spray. Casey gave him some, then Michelle ordered more on the internet. Casey sprayed some on a tree outside and they all whiffed it and pronounced it vile. But I could hardly smell it.

Anyway, Michelle took him back to the barracks while I went on with the game. Chris texted me when he got home from the airport around 10. Around 10:30 I had done everything in the game that I could think of. So I shut it down. I thanked them and headed home.

Chris was already in bed. I got ready for bed and crawled in beside him. He woke up enough to move over and snuggle.
