We had a good day yesterday. We first went to the base picnic. ( I forgot my camera, sorry no pictures of that) We ran into several people there and I even ran into one of my drop in parents(I've only watched their kids once) and she was like can you watch my kids This coming up Friday? Yep you bet I have all 4 slots open. Where are all these kids that they told me desperately needed watched especially at nights and weekends full time? Where??? Anyway I'll make a few extra bucks this Friday. YIPPEE. We ran into the home school family of 9. We're going to get together for a play date. I just have to set it up with their mom, who wasn't there because of an ankle injury.Leia is looking forward to that. Then because it was so so so hot in the 90's we went to the base pool. Now for it being so darn hot, why on earth did the pool feel like freezing mountain water. Yes once you got used to the shock and 10 minuets to get past your knees ,it warmed up to like -30. But we had fun. The pool closes next Friday so this will be our last trip for the season. She did a million trips down the slide and dove and did tons of handstands and flips. She is such a fish in the water.
She also lounged on the noodle.
This is the only cantaloupe that I picked out of our garden. All of the others rotted. I'm not sure why. One day they were fine and 2 days later they were all brown caving in and it wasn't just them it was most of my other plant too. Like some phantom moved in and just killed everything. So I was excited to have at least on cantaloupe to share with Leia. It smelled like mint( mental note next year don't plant near the mint patch. it was surrounded by it) so I couldn't tell if it was ready by smell. I have to learn the thumping method. Trust me I thumped the crap out of it trying to figure if it was ready. I couldn't tell. So this was my logic. At the grocery store they are selling for a buck meaning they are in season because they are normally 3 dollars. So I figured the time was right. So out came the huge knife and at first stab,I knew it wasn't' going to be good. I opened it up and 90 percent of it was green. Dang it !!!!I thought Leia was going to be devastated. I was even planning on buying another one and hiding it in our garden for her to find and then we would eat that one. But I couldn't do it. I had to tell her the truth. She took it really well. Better then I thought. She was sad about it, then her logic little head said" mommy it's OK, they're only a dollar at the store". I thought she was more into the garden thing then that!!! Oh well, Hopefully my next garden will be better and she'll get more into it.
This is a picture of my daycare. One room of it anyway. This is the main playroom.
This is the same room just a different wall. I think it looks really nice. I get tons of compliments on how nice and homey it feels. I just wish I had some full time daycare kids to go with it.
To finish off my day yesterday we had dinner at Jens. She had another friend over so it was a nice dinner party. We then watched a few movies and just relaxed. It was a nice evening. Today is church and yard work. The forecast calls for rain so maybe nix the yard work. Yippee!!! I hope you all had a great weekend.Love to you all.
