Day 29 - Sunshine! Glorious Sunshine!

Another great day!  I almost don't know what to write about because I'm afraid I'm going to bore you but I assure you these "normal" non-significant days are becoming my favorite!

The kids and I did school early again.  Then Scott made breakfast while I jumped in the shower.

In the early afternoon the kids convinced us to head down to the pool.  Its in the low 60s but the sun is out and its honestly very comfortable.  Scott and I didn't get in the water but enjoyed lounging in the sun before heading to the hot tub.

After showers, we decided to head over to the theater and catch the premier of Ralph Breaks the Internet.  We didn't leave the theater until 7:30 pm.  We stopped at WalMart for a quick item on the way home.   Its the day before Thanksgiving and lots of folks have arrived for the holiday weekend... so the store was CRAZY.  But I was quick in and out and got back to the condo in no time.

Literally as we walked in the door, Sammy told me we were out of a grocery item that she uses every day.  Ugh.  I decided to go through all my Thanksgiving recipes again to verify we had everything before heading back to the store.

Again, it was NUTS but everyone seemed in a good mood so I made it out relatively easy.  Driving through the parking lot, I realized that I didn't have enough baking pans / casserole dishes for all the recipes I had planned... so I turned back around and went back inside.  Shopping at WalMart the night before Thanksgiving for the third time in 2 hours.

When I got home, I was feeling pretty tired so although I had 3 recipes to prep tonight, I decided instead to make myself some supper (everyone else ate at the theater) and then just hung out with Tyler.  By 10:00 pm I had a headache so I tucked the kids in and went to bed myself.

Sammy has still been dealing with her cold.  She is hoarse and coughs often so I think she sounds worse than it is.  She also gets tired pretty easily so we try to give plenty of rest times.
