Well, we'll start not quite the day after, but last night. As usual, bedtime was difficult. One of the girls has a tendency to say she understand my instructions, and then goes and does what she wants. No, it wasn't mine. The girl in question would pretend to go to bed, and then start bouncing around. I started to drift off at almost 10:30, hoping they would just go to sleep. At that moment, the girl's mom called. I recognize that that family keeps late hours. Everyone does their own thing. It took me hours after that to fall asleep, so I'm really tired... Especially, since Annie and another girl woke up at 6:30 am. I was awake as a result of my internal alarm clock, but I wasn't quite ready to get up...

Well, the morning progressed with only a few problems. They all had donuts on my bed while watching a movie. They spent pretty much all of the time on the trampoline. I was the audience while they demonstrated a routine they had developed among the four of them. It was great!

All the kids were gone by 2:00 pm, and Annie and I ran down to the lumber yard to get some plumbing supplies. It was $130. Holy crap. The only good news was the lady/girl that was at the checkout counter (I had to make sure not to say checking me out) is way too young for me, but might be the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. Annie agreed, and also commented on how nice she was (and she always is). Alright, enough about that...

I spent some time under the house before we went to the lumber store. Murphy and Karma had not had time to move things around before I went under, fortunately. Some of the things I was worried about are going to be easier than I thought, some of them are going to be harder... I will get the wet wall installed...

Annie has been vegging on the couch for a while, but she needs me, so I will stop now...

Plumber extraordinaire...
