Lazy Afternoon!

It's been a while since I've had a lazy afternoon. I decided to put housecleaning off until Wednesday, since Marie comes on Thursday. It just doesn't make sense to do it twice. I took my final this morning and turned my last paper in. This class was so much work. I wonder what the next one will entail. It's a research/writing class. The used book I ordered from Amazon has not arrived yet and I ordered it 10 days ago. I just heard from the seller, and they were sick, so they shipped it priority today. I hope I will have it Tuesday, which puts me only one day behind. The biology class with lab starts on the 8th and I will go pick up my book for that on Wednesday.

The kids are currently making dinner. They do that once in a while. It is good for them to open the fridge and pantry, then try to make a meal of what is there. Right now they are doing pre-dinner dishwashing. I love that they are in the kitchen together, working to make something for us all to eat. It really beats going out, on so many levels. And while the kids are in the kitchen I poured Joe and I each a glass of my favorite Zin from a local winery. 7 deadly Zins is the name of it, from Lodi, California. If you have the opportunity to pick it up I would urge you to do so. We are taking Marie wine tasting to Amador county when she comes. It's been two years since I've gone there so I'm looking forward to it.

We had good news from the orthodontist this week. Jessica gets her braces off on July 2nd, and Andrew probably will have his off in August or September. Jessica is very excited because she's been going to the orthodontist since 4th grade. She has one of those mouths where anything that could happen...did.
