days_unfolding | Errand Day/Mom Report

Slept for around 12 hours. Must have needed it.

Zara is looking out the window, and twitching when a bird flies by. Harlee is walking around complaining. She's doing well and eating and drinking.

Reading about the eruption of the volcano in Hawaii. I've been to Volcanoes National Park. I'm wondering why anyone would live near there. Remembering my trip there. My dad and I were hiking in a dormant volcano, and I tripped and fell. Solid lava is like glass, so I really ripped up my leg. My dad was proud of me because I finished the hike. Then the ranger bandaged up my leg. I think that I was around 10 at the time?

Took a nap. Made a grocery list. Made and ate pancakes. I'm getting better at making them.

Dyed my hair. I really need a haircut also, but at least, my hair is all one color now.

Ran errands. Bought lots of food. Ate some french-bread pizza that was garlic and three-cheese, and oh, was it good. I only allow myself to get french-bread pizza when I go to Aldi's for a major shopping trip because I'd live on french-bread pizza. However, I'm tempted to go back tomorrow to see if they have more of the garlic ones.

Talked to Mom. She's tired, but really wants to get the energy to work on the garden. My aunt wants my mom to come to Chicago for when my aunt has surgery, but Mom doesn't feel up to it. My aunt had her first week of radiation, and it went okay.

Need to go to sleep soon because I need to be at the college for Commencement at 11:45 AM.

Next week, we start working 7 hours a day instead of 8 hours for the summer. Looking forward to it.
