Another one of those days when at the end of the day I cannot really remember what happened. Amanda is on call all weekend and she had to go into the hospital and round. I watched the Kai scoot around on his new kick scooter while keeping Baby Jae from killing herself in some gruesome baby accident. The Kai was having trouble stopping from a large speed; he typically either dragged a foot or simply jumped off and allowed the scootter to crash into things. I showed him how to use the rear fender to brake, and he learned quickly.

Amanda eventually returned. LK wanted to go to a two hour kiddie ceramics class (he had been to the place before and plainted a plate). Evidently, one can drop one’s kid off, so Amanda dropped him off and then went to crossfit. I stayed at home and got the baby to sleep and cleaned and whatnot.

I was going to go running after they returned, but I had forgotten that Amanda was on call, and if she did get called in it would be bad if I was not around. She could call me, of course, but I tend to not be able to hear or feel my cell phone ringing, and it would be even more difficult when it is in my running pounch thing.

We just bundled everyone up and went to Safeway to get supplies for dinner. SDK and two graduate compadres were flying in tonight for a conference in Vancouver. They would only stop at our place for dinner, and then would continue on to Canada. We decided to just make pizza and salad. Our purchases at Safeway were typical, though; we ony by stuff that is bad for us there. This included soda, ice cream, potatoe chips, candy, etc. etc. etc.. I guess we did get some red peppers, too.

We made dinnier, SDK and friends arrived, and dinner was consumed. I gave them all of our canadian money in case they had an emergency before they could find an ATM. I only had a few paper bills and loonies and toonies, but I did have a lot of smaller change. Amanda just put that in a ziploc bag for them.

They took off after dinner, but will return next Wednesday and then stay in Seattle until the weekend. Or one of them is; I think another person will be flying into the conference and coming back with them and they all will be leaving at different times.

Everyone is asleep. My stomach is paining me. I need to take some magic pills.
