Best Part of the Day - Hit the gym and then went to the playground with M and her two boyz for a picnic lunch. The boyz all played really, really well together and lasted quite some time. The rain drove us away - Hooray, let's get rid of this pollen! The pollen is so abundant this year that the cars, car tired, streets, sidewalks, stairs, porches look like they are covered with powered snow (but yellow). The various pollen counts are about 100x times higher than last year due to the colder than normal winter and then the 87 degree days we've been having (yup - we all know a lot about pollen around here. It's the hot topic.)

Also found out today that the plumber I thought had stood me up on Monday came while I was out and about (Erik was here) and fixed our downstairs toilet! What the ... I used it and it seems to be working just fine :)

Worst Part of the Day - Long afternoon due to rain. Is it wrong to let your three year old watch many episodes of The Pink Panther? (They call it The Pink Tiger.) I think I'm going to remove it from Roku (the dealie that streams Netflix to our TV.) Too violent and kind of an annoying show.

Wes - So Wes has this bff Connor who we've been hanging out with this whole week. They are bff's from preschool. If you ask either who is your best friend they will say the others name. So I ask Wes (just because I think it is adorable) "who is your best friend?" He thinks and then says "Zachary." Now Zachary is Connor's older brother (about Quinn's age). Wes does love the BIG kids - he's really partial to hanging with them. So I say "Why is Zachary your best friend?" And Wes says "because he has video (bideo) games!" Yup - that's my BFF criteria too.
