Sunday had very beautiful weather. Lydia had to work again after the morning services, so Mysia and Malachi rode the vans with me before heading home. We made lunch, watched a short video while eating, and got a nice afternoon nap. After evening services, Lydia was able to make it home in time to spend a few hours together before bed.
Lydia woke up sick with a stomach bug on Monday, so she didn't make it to class or work so that she could recover. I mowed the lawn after I got home and then helped a neighbor move his dog that died. We ate supper and I did a small grocery run. Mysia was able to complete all of her home. Later that evening, I got an intense costochondritis attack, but was able to take some ibuprofen to get the pain down.
After school on Tuesday, Lydia took Mysia to the Doctor to find out why she was having chest pains. We were afraid it might be asthma but found out that it is a pulled chest muscle that we hope will heal within a month. After eating supper, Lydia went to a college group meeting while I took the kids with me for grocery shopping. Amazingly, the kids did very well, and we survived the trip no problems! They had showers before bed.
We didn't have services due to the visitation of one of our elderly Saints who had passed on to Glory on Sunday. Once back home, we ate supper and spent some family time together.
Even though it rained and we had cold weather, Thursday evening was spent at home. We made supper and cleaned the house!
On Friday, we attended the "Block Party" at Mysia's school. The kids got their faces painted, jumped in the bounce house, and played a few games. We also ate several helpings of cotton candy, snow-cones, nachos & cheese, and hotdogs! Mysia was sure to show off her "little brother" to her friends, reminding them that he'll attending Kindergarten this next school year.
Lydia headed off to work on Saturday morning while the kids and I got up early and headed to our Tae-Kwon-Do class. It was a special day… a testing time for some of our classmates! Instructor Sam even broke a few concrete blocks. We came home and worked on cleaning bedrooms before lunch, and then they took a short nap. The weather was nice, so we spent the latter part of the afternoon outside. I worked on repairing the sump-pump pipe that takes the water from under our house to the ditch. Mysia and Malachi enjoyed playing and running around the yard. Once Lydia got off work, she made a stop by the grocery store, and then came home. We had supper and played some games before going to bed!
