Day 290

Took the boys to school as per usual, and when we got there, Zach and I sat down to talk. He was sitting on my lap at the door, and asked if we could by some sweets after I picked him up. We had a conversation, and he asked if we could have a sweet picnic after school, in my room. I told him that would be fine, and when his class was let in, I went on my way. I met up with Tina, the two of us came back to the house to collect the car, and we went shopping.

First we stopped for coffee, then there was a lot of trying on clothes. I built a bear for Emilio (Michelle's soon to be one year old), complete with warming red heart and a kiss, and we were back in Kelvedon by 1. I dropped Tina off, and as I was so exhausted, I had a 45 minute nap. When I woke up, I was still super sleepy, but had to go get Zach. I walked outside, and into a wall of heat. That's when I decided to bring the car. I picked Tina up when I saw her walking down the street, and after getting Zach, the two of us drove back to the house. I put a collection of sweets into different dishes, and then asked Zach if I should get a towel, as if it was a real picnic. He said yes. We set everything up, and had a great time. Just as we finished eating all our candies, Heloise got home. I went downstairs with Zach, and the two of us read his "Zach Hood" book, until Heloise had showered, and said she'd go get the other 2 from Football. Her and Zach left, and I jumped in the car to drive to Peterborough.

I stopped for gas, then got to Starbucks and jumped out to get my drink and have a conversation. Back in the car and on my way. When I arrived, I went in to speak to my Nan. Then I met up with my Mom, Uncle and Aunt. We drove down to Charlie's and had fish and chips. Then Tom came by and asked me to go out with him and some friends. We went to play pool, and I had a really nice time, as usual. A few hours later, I was back at my Aunt's, and it wasn't too long before I fell asleep. xx
