Day 131, 132, 133, and 134

Day 131
I think the girls got in playtime out on the street with the neighbor kids while Daddy was outside with them.  I can't say for sure, I was out shopping for thank you gifts.  It's all a blur, this week, the next two weeks.  Pretty much every "group" we belong to connected with church and preschool is ending in the next two weeks.  This means lots of meetings, thank yous to buy, write, and distribute and general details to keep up with.

Speaking of the shopping trip, I got suckered/trapped into listening to a live infomercial in Fred Meyer.  15 minutes of my prescious time - gone!  They tricked me and several others by annoucing over the loud speaker that free gifts were being given out to any adult who came to a certain part of the store.  I would have never fallen for this kind of thing, but it is the Founder's Day Sale this week so the store has super good deals.  It is completely plausible that that they would be giving away free gifts and the annoucer, which I assumed was the store manager, mentioned this was for Founders Day. I totally thought this was something the store was doing as a customer appreciation thing and I was smugly thinking how lucky I was to be one of a handful of people at the store at 9:45pm.  They are rewarding us, I thought.  Turns out it was the Euro Clean guy who was selling Mr Sticky lint removers!  Umm, Euro Clean man, how is it that you are claiming you have this break through new lint remover that no one else makes, yet I have the same lint remover in my home and I got it for free somewhere 20 some odd years ago?

Day 132
You won't have to hear me complain about wednesdays and trying to get in some family time on Pioneer Club nights.  We're done for the summer, so hopefully wednesdays can now be family exercise evenings.  The girls got in their swimming as usual today and I got in a 5 mile run.

Day 133
Girls and gymnastcs, a walk and speed workout for mom, a walk for Dad.  Playground time for Hannah.  Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

Day 134
It's Girl's Night in our home.  Daddy has a Guy's Movie Night.  The girls were crushed last week when we were supposed to have a Girl's Night and it fell through.  They told John he ruined Girl's Night. We were able to get some neighborhood biking and hide and seek done before he left 40 min.
