From 8:30am to 12:30pm Barbara and I babysat Anna Kate.
Mostly we had American Ninja Warriors on TV and I played I was a warrior.
Anna Kate tried to do everything I did.... 
 ...like jump on a pogo stick.  LOL.
We did rest and read some.

When we came home, I stopped in the garage to practice on my pogo stick.  We found that if Barbara held onto my waist I could jump 8 or 9 times before I fell off.  I know if I keep practicing I will get better and better.

Around 2:30pm we met Mimz at Sprouts.  I brought my pogo stick so I can get some pointers from my dad on how to get better jumping on it.

I ate a big healthy dinner: grilled salmon, baked sweet potato and broccoli.  As soon as I finished I was out the door practicing on pogo stick skills.  At that time my record was 6 or 7 jumps by myself.  Within thirty minutes I had sat a new record:  20 jumps!    

I kept saying things like "I love this pogo stick."  "This is so much fun."  I could then jump all over the driveway going clear over to the neighbor's house.  Mimz took so great videos until she ran out of memory on her phone.

I told Mimz I couldn't sleep late this morning because I was thinking about my pogo stick.

Barbara is talking to Andy about possibly making me a pair of stilts.  Barbara looked online for instructions to build stilts.  She found some... she also found stilts for sale for $35.00... so we shall see what happens.
