A Beautiful Day in the Neighbourhood

Well today was a pretty basic day. I dropped the boys off at school and went to watch kids for Becky for an hour or so while she took her Suburban in for repairs (needed a new muffler). Burnt some DVD's, went and paid the rent, picked up the kids. Typical day. Got quite a few ebay parcels today though..bought Keman a button up shirt made by Quicksilver for 10 cents!! Shipping was 5 bucks but that's still darn cheap for Quicksilver. Got the cutest little outfit for Rhiannon, Gymbo of course, from "Grown with Love" Striped tights, a denim skirt embroidered with carrots, peas and radishes and a white top that says "I Play with my Food" spelled out in the same veggies. It's too cute for words. I came home and made some supper, did some laundry and cleaned up my living room, it's still a little messy, will finish it after the kids go to bed, kind of like shoveling snow in a blizzard if I do it now.

Keman was telling me about the book he's studying in class called "Hana's Suitcase" it's similar to "The Diary of Anne Frank" as it's a young Jewish girl's account of what befell her during the holocaust. He updates me a little everyday, I learned that Waisenkind means orphan in German. I think I may buy a copy of it as he really likes the story and I'd like to read it. I have one called "We Were in Auchwitz" a VERY disturbing read, almost as disturbing as "Roots". Well it's time to put Niall to bed so until next post, Be Thou Blessed.
