Tuesday at home

Poor Patrick has a cold.  He's coughing, his head hurts, and he feels nauseated.  I begin this post with this description because it's the reason that I delayed my walk with Cathy from 8:30 to 9 am this morning.  And I'm so glad I did, because Sierra Skyped us at 8:30 this morning!  I answered on my Galaxy Player, so she couldn't hear me, but I could hear her.  And we could see each other.

It was funny trying to respond to her, first with rudimentary ASL (which she doesn't know), and then with little signs Pat made for me to hold up.  I think Sierra was as glad to see us as we were to see her.  All of our antics cracked her up!

After our walk to the boat launch (I rousted Aspen out of bed so Dash could come, too), my lungs were pretty thrashed.  I've detoxed from my daily 24-hour allergy meds, and am completely clean now.  But it feels like I've got asthma when climbing hills.

I got online and paid some bills, then the boys and I headed out for lunch at Quizno's.  Mmm-mmm-mmm:  Toasty!  We haven't had Quizno's in ages.

We headed over to the motorcycle shop to pick up the belt for Pat's quad, and Aspen tried out the different quads that they have for sale.  He's really interested in getting a bigger quad.

Speaking of which, he had his phone interview with Home Depot yesterday.  I don't know what the next step is supposed to be, but at least they let him know that it's a 20-29 hr/week stocking job.  They said NOT to go to the store to inquire, but it seems like he should go to the store and make himself known.

He's still on the waitlist for his classes, and no one has contacted him about the entry code for the one class that is not full and for which he has all of the pre-reqs fulfilled.

I am plugging along, updating my online lectures, and am getting ready to start working on my report on my inferring sexual interest study.  Different things keep interfering with my getting to work on that. . .

The weather is beautiful up here right now. . .  upper 80s and sunny.  It's great for our break from school.
