Yesterday was relaxing to the point of being (nearly) boring. The most active thing I did was take the dogs out. (one at a time, and just in the yard). I did fix supper for the kids last night; Jimmy and I ate some of Cindy's yummy left-overs! :)
This morning I've tidied up a bit, and taken the puppy out twice. In a few minutes I'll get myself cleaned up and maybe go to Dunkin' Donuts. Hey, it's a grandparent's right to spoil kids, right? :) Later today we'll head home; I don't know when so don't know what I'll get done at home.
