Labour Day was pretty swell except when I tried to donate, I was off by one on my iron and couldn’t donate. I had a killer breakfast though.
Sissy and BIL came over and we ordered Sushihana. They played with Ethan for a bit before he went down for his nap. Then we spent a few hours playing Stardew Valley. They’ve been playing for years and have asked me to join their game. This could be a single player game, kind of like Animal Crossing, but it’s not one I would ever play by myself.
Having Ethan is fun but it’s also super draining. He needs more attention than Emmy at this age which is CRAZY to even think about. He’s had fun eating popcorn, watching Mickey Mouse, listening to me play guitar and sing to him. He doesn’t understand personal space and always lays on people jumping up and down. As for Rizzo, I’m sure he’s tired of the nonstop crying and constant slaps in his face from Ethan. Rizzo also doesn’t understand personal space.
Friday after work, I took Ethan to Mallory’s house for a playdate. He and Jacob get along SO well! And JJ was a sweetheart and played with him as well. We had wine and ordered dinner from Maika’i Hawaiian BBQ. We all loved the food from there, especially Ethan and Jacob. They are definitely the eaters of the kids.
We decided to walk to the clubhouse and get some ice creams. JJ pushed Ethan for me and I was able to get some cute pictures. (Exhibit A: Ethan’s hair)
The guy messed up and accidentally made an extra ice cream. Sugar overload. It’s safe to say Ethan had fun. He was so tired on the push back to the house and fell asleep with the bottle in his mouth.
I had heard recently about a restaurant that opened that came from Chicago, Lao Sze Chuan. The food was good. Nothing special except that it’s less salty which we all loved. My favourite is the fried intestines. Even Ethan did well and sat and ate a lot!
The only complaint was the service. Understandable as there is a shortage everywhere but they could be a little more attentive.
I finished three puzzles this week which I didn’t even know until I put this post together. Almost done with the kitten and dog 10 pack from when we were kids and we never did.
Yesterday night I played Stardew Valley with Sissy and BIL for many hours before we called it a night.
Ethan was able to get some video in with Emmy. It was sweet to hear Emmy say that he misses Ethan.
Sissy and BIL came over. We ordered food from Zoe’s Kitchen then it was playtime with Ethan and Stardew Valley with me. I’m starting to like the game a lot but still, not something I’d play by myself. I hate building things.
Today marks the completion of the 4 week SWEAT High Intensity program. Rizzo was by my side every day. Rocky liked being close by my yoga mat on days I had body weights. I don’t feel like much has changed but I do feel stronger. Off to schedule my next workouts. What should I do now?
