kv0925Yesterday, my first day back from the trip, the wife and kids thought it would be nice if I took a half-day. And since I worked all last weekend and the company owes me alternate days off, I decided I'd do just that, plus tomorrow afternoon and next Monday as well. The weather looks amazing this weekend, so I am hoping to spend most of it out and about. And my allergies seem better too--I even mowed the lawn in the dry and dusty midday yesterday, with no ill effects. Nice!
So anyway, we were out to lunch at a sub place and suddenly Hallie gets a strange look on her face, and then I see her sorta surreptitiously spit out the bite she was working on. Turns out her other front tooth came out, and she didn't even know it was loose! So now she's missing both of her top front teeth, which might make her look a little funny for a while. :) Heather took her to the bathroom so she could rinse if there was blood, and I grabbed a napkin to dispose of the food she'd spit out. But apparently I also got the tooth and tossed it. Oops. So she wrote a note for the Tooth Fairy to leave under her pillow instead:
Kids are cute. :)
While I was mowing, Heather was raking leaves and a neighbor from across the street came over to ask if they could have some of the leaves for mulch or compost. Uh, yeah, please--want to rake them up too? FEEL FREE. Anyway, he told her that he had talked to the people we think are squatting in that house to see what's what, and apparently--if they are to be believed--they think they're renting the place, and paid two months' rent up front. Which would mean that they're just dumb, and the actual scammer is whoever "rented" them the house. Because it's definitely still bank-owned, and there's no way. As far as I know, the bank hasn't yet sent anyone to inspect the property. But again, at least the people living there aren't doing anything to make nuisances of themselves. Shady stuff, though, and sorry for them if they get stuck in between the bank and their scamming "landlord".
Wow, today has gone by pretty quickly, already almost time to go home! I think I will head out soon and edit more photos, so I can be done with them before the weekend since I'll hope to get out and take more!
