My entire day was based on how I could get as much done as possible and avoid the heat. I was up relatively early and out with a bucket of soapy water on my knees scrubbing the algae away in the pool. I tried out a tool I bought last year and it was perfect for the job!
I came inside to cool down for a bit and the went out and pruned my lilac until I couldn’t take it any more. next was filling all the inflatables and checking for leaks. Didn’t find the leak in the unicorn before I was getting headachy so I came in to sit in front of fan, eat and drink water. Sanjay and Candice came over to borrow my router to fix their cupboard doors. I love being the girl with the tools. Does it make me misogynistic to think it is unusual for a chick to have a router?
I got my outside chores done and Emmy arrived just after 5 . She had to get in the pool right away. It had filled to the perfect height for her not to need her water wings. She really is a joy to be around and I love 5hat her first question was whether her cousin Sawyer was coming too. He is out at the lake or he would be here too. She says his name in a way that sounds like Sewer lol
She had so much fun in the pool and then playing in ‘Nana’s Park’, the slide and swings in our strata common area. This was followed by a shower and a picnic style dinner which she loved.
She is such an intuitive child and at such a young age we are able to have interesting conversations.
I very much miss The Campbell’s but know they will be back soon and they really needed to get away. I watched the limited series Waco today. between chores and it really gives a different perspective of what went down! No matter what version of events, 25 children were lost. Terribly sad.
