Monday morning, I arrived at Sissy & BIL’s. They were getting their water heater put in and needed someone to be at the house. It was nice working at a different location for a day. I was able to watch Selena + Chef (I finished the whole season that day) while I worked and Bruno and Kato laid on me. I even got to order from 7 Spices. Their food came out amazing and was a little bummed I ordered so little but it was enough to fulfill me.
Later that day when they came home, we ordered food from some place I don’t remember and watched an episode of Parenthood. I got the seafood sandwich with a side of soup and it was wonderful. I saved the other half to take home to Mum.
I had spent the night at their house since the next day, it was my Jury Duty. I had signed up to do virtual but I never received an email. When I showed up they told me mine was virtual but since I’m here, to stay. I ended up being chosen to be on grand jury. Before you tell me I should of been more opinionated, I’m just going to say this – they only ask about your schedule. It’s going to be for twice a week for three months. I’ve told my line manager so on days I have to go to jury duty, I’ll have to also work after if I get off early. They did give us a pretty good lunch and apparently on those two days a week, we’ll be getting that as well.
Wednesday morning, Frankenstein surprised me that he now has a kitty. Apparently when he left the hospital, someone had found a kitty and he offered to take her in. She doesn’t have a name yet but he’ll be naming her after some space stuff. I cannot wait to meet her tomorrow! I hope she likes me more. Doubt it though.
Later that day, I went to pick up some beef jerky that Ricardo had sent down. I had taken Emmy with me and remembered that I was going to stop by Mallory and John’s to see Robbie. He was in town for a day and they were doing dinner. I stopped by where Emmy got to play with Jacob and JJ while we talked and ate. It was nice to catch up since it’s been forever. Emmy and I then stopped by Pet Supplies Plus and saw some kitties up for adoption. After seeing Frankenstein having one I want one now. Maybe one day.
Thursday night I finished my mountain puzzle. Sadly a piece was missing from this one too. UGH. I don’t know if it’s because of the kids or because of the company because it’s the same company as the previous missing piece puzzle. Luckily, my Tangled puzzle was safe; different company though.
Friday, after work, I took both Ethan & Emmy to Mallory’s. John was home too and was able to finally meet Ethan. They all played a long great. Ethan and Jacob, Emmy and JJ. Not fights and great deal of sharing. I ordered food from Uncle Julio’s and drinks (duh) and relaxed. After a long while of playing, we headed home. With the kids both asleep, I know it was a good day for them.
Saturday morning, Sissy came over so that we could get pedicures with Mum. We stopped by Nuestra Casa Bakery Cafe. This place is so tucked in that I would have never stopped by if Sissy didn’t ask to. They have nice pastries like sweet bread and empanadas, among other things. I am going to stop by here again to get more in the future.
We stopped by, got Starbucks, and begin tie dying with Emmy. Our hands were all blue since Emmy doused her shirt with so much blue, the pink didn’t show up anymore. Her shirt ended up being pretty good though.
Sissy and I then went and dropped off a lot of stuff to UPS and stopped by Diaso to do some shopping we didn’t need before we got back home where she played with Emmy a bit before leaving.
A few hours later, Brudda and SIL arrived and I was finally child free. This is when I started and finished my Tangle puzzle while listening to music.
Sunday morning started off with SIL picking up Starbucks before everyone showed up at our house. Sissy, BIL, Gordon, Timothy, and Sarah joined Brudda, SIL and I to Armadillo Escape Room Adventures. We won, but we did get a lot of hints we didn’t ask for. We assume because we were on Novice.
Afterwards, we picked up Emmy and pizza from Russo’s and headed over to Katie’s house so that we could hang out with Joanna, Kiran, Jasmine, Katrina, Jacky as well. We ate pizza and played board games. Then we headed home for dinner of hot pot before heading back for sparklers. These sparklers were from Joanna & Kiran’s wedding YEARS ago. But they still worked and the kids had a lot of fun.
Everyone leaves tomorrow which means relaxation at it’s finest.
