Saturday
Saturday, I got up at 5:30am, and headed home to feed Puck and water the grass. When I got back, Aaron and IL7 got up and we went to the beach. When we got overheated (but before Loki was ready to leave), we went back to the campsite. After Aaron cooked dinner, I drove back home for another watering and feeding. It poured rain at the campground while I was gone, so IL7 got to enjoy splashing in the puddles.
Sunday
Sunday, we packed up camp and made it home by 11. We spent the day recuperating from the camping trip. M14 and D16 came home from seeing their grandpa with their mom. In the evening, Dad took Aaron, IL7, and me out to Outback Steakhouse.
Monday
Monday was very productive for me. I got up early to give Polyphemus some anxiety meds before his teeth cleaning. I took IL7 to an appointment, Dad to the gym, and then D16 to an appointment. Plus errands/phone calls that I had been procrastinating on. IL7 and I worked on his homework. And I got some reading and writing done.
Tuesday
Tuesday was a good day. I took Dad to see his physical therapist, then got an oil change and some new filters. In the afternoon, IL7 and I planted carrot seeds in pots (because we don’t have a garden, and he suddenly decided he wanted to plant a vegetable). Then we finished up his homework. In the evening, my froend Liz came over and we all watched some Doctor Who.
Wednesday
Wednesday started with a dentist appointment for D16, followed by an hearing aid appointment for Dad. I also ran some errands and made some calls. The evening was relaxed.
Thursday
Thursday, I took Dad to the gym – I stayed on the treadmill for an hour. I got some cross-stitch done. In the evening, Aaron and I played D&D.
Friday
Friday I took the other car in for an oil change then took Dad to the gym. I stayed on the treadmill 30 minutes.

Mr Pickwick and his friends have a series of adventures while traveling around England. Amusing story.
Shubin delves into evidence of evolution within anatomy of the human body. It was fascinating and well-written.
Ankh-Morpork goes to war with Klatch. Funny. Satire of politics.
