The last Monday of school

Due to the Memorial Day holiday coming up, today is the kids last Monday of the school year! I’m sure the week will go fast as they all do these days. It’ll be 1 week tomorrow since my surgery meaning I have only another week until I can lose these frickin socks. My leg or knee hurt last night which is probably because I didn’t take a pill. I also probably did too much.

The day started with the oldest and I going to his baseball game. Some of the mom’s told him he was a hero and the dad’s too said he did a great thing in standing up for his classmates. We lasted until the 4th inning before my leg was aching. Then it was off to home where the boys played for the rest of the day. The sun was so hot I burned my arms sitting there watching the game as we didn’t have sunscreen with us. It was hard for Jag to watch and not play. Oh yeah, the youngest walked into a metal pole with his head down at the park when they were playing. He has quite the goose egg on his forehead.

Mom went to the nursery for some plant pots and was gone for what seemed like hours. She also went to register both boys for swim team which cost a small fortune these days. My neighbor and I turned on our sprinklers and he informed me that our neighborhoods watering days are Thursday and Sundays but only after 7pm. Looks like our grass will be brown before you know it with those restrictions.

Here’s a comment from Annette,

I don’t know about sweets but for the rest of it,  he can go back to his grandmother and great grandfather. It’s amazing what kids come up with.

I guess he was right, after all, allergies have to come from somewhere. I don’t think I was allergic to anything (except liver and brussel sprouts) growing up but now that I married the misses, I think I’m getting a few, which for sure, is all her fault!

We saw the tornado’s on the news in Oklahoma, Shawnee to be exact, which is where Aunt Myrna lives. Hope she’s ok. You can say anything you want about Colorado but we’re pretty much isolated from really destructive weather.  The tornado’s on the news are just incredible. We always say we’re glad we don’t live in tornado ally.

Time to run or walk or limp depending on how you look at it. Hope everyone has a great day and week and hope Pa Don makes it out of the hospital soon!
