Golfball Hail

We had golfball sized hail this evening after dinner.

I got to work about 8:30 and worked till 11.

I am trying to take advantage of the coming and going since this is the last week I don’t officially have to be back in the office eight hours a day, post corona.

Mom and I ate lunch while you girls played a little bit.

But after that, H, you called Ms. Long for your final “sight-word assessment.” You finished three entire lists in one call and officially mastered all 11 kindergarten word lists!

Mom and I are so proud of how hard you worked!!!

We ran a few errands after that and mom was able to make a few needed work calls from the car.

We got Bahama Bucks and ate it on the back porch when we got home.

Later, H and K, I took you both on a late afternoon drive around town (just for something to do).

Y’all were so loud playing sweetly (and fighting angrily), I felt more frazzled when I got home than when I left.

We ate dinner, and then the golfball hail started.

It lasted for about 5 minutes.

By the time it stopped, I knew it was time for the house to get ready for bed.

I have been grumpy and short-tempered the last few days and I apologize for that.

My best guess is that it’s a combination of lack of sleep and lack of margin.

But that’s no excuse.

I love you.

Back At Work

Today was the first day my office was officially “back at work.”

I’m still trying to help out at home though with maternity leave and kindergarten still going on, so I left work at noon.

I was thinking how odd it is that many stores are requiring face-masks to enter.

Since doctors (at least from what I have read) think that only the “N-95” surgical masks stop transmission, the entire thing feels like a show to simply make people feel better.

Gloves are the same thing. If a drive-thru worker is not going to change their gloves after exchanging goods for payment with every customer, what’s the point?

When I got home we ate lunch and, H and K, I took you both for a long drive.

We took my white Tahoe, where you girls sat beside each other and played together the entire time.

It was just nice to be out of the house and moving.

I love you.
