I really wanted to take my winter gloves to school, one in each of my jacket pockets. I promised I would take care not to lose them, so I got my wish. When Barbara picked me up from school, I had on my gloves, no jacket, it was 75 degrees outside. I was happy.
Instead of driving home we drove to the DMV where Barbara had left GGM and GGF where they were getting Texas IDs. GGF did get his, GGM didn't. She needs an original marriage license, not a copy. So when she got home, she started looking for her passport. When she finds that, she will be ready to go back to try again.
From there, as a treat, we went to the new DQ. (Notice I have on my winter gloves.) I ate an entire chocolate shake all by myself. I doubt we go back. The same treat fixed at home, could be made for a fourth the cost. Anyway, it was a treat for us, since they don't go out to eat often. I think that makes five times for GGM to eat out since she moved here a year and a half ago.
At home, we watched part of a CHiPS show, then we spent the rest of the day outside. GGM, Barbara, and I set out my new baseball bases, and we hit, ran, pitched, caught, and tagged players out a few dozen times. I really like being the pitcher because I can retrieve the hit ball, and run down the batter before she can get to the base. I must have made a dozen double plays all by myself.
I waited for Mr Brad to finish mowing, then we went for a long bike ride. We rode to the waterfall, then to the playground where I played with some kids, then we rode home.
GGM and Barbara were rested so we played baseball again. It was great fun.... until I threw a fit because Barbara made it all around the bases and scored. I threw home plate, and started talking back, etc, and I was in big trouble. Barbara put me into Time Out and called my mother to tell her I was behaving terribly, to come get me now. When Mommy picked me up, I talked back to her, and ran away when she told me to get in the car, Daddy was waiting for me. I am afraid I am going to get in bigger trouble when I get home.
Daddy did talk to me.
I had a bath and was in bed by 8:20pm.
