I went off to school knowing if I came home and willingly did my math homework and practiced my spelling words I would be able to play with my friends instead of being grounded.  Barbara is babysitting Bradley a bunch this week and she is too tired to keep me away from my friends.  But if I mess up, I will be grounded the rest of this week.  I still can't use iPad or iPhone.

I did my math homework and only made one mistake.  I'm pretty good at spelling my spelling words. I played with Julian, Xavier, and Alyssa.  Then just with Alyssa.

I came home asking Barbara if she would give me money for the Walmart gift card.  When I told her it was to buy things at the corner store, she said no.   And she said I could not go with Henry, about 12 years old.  Then I told her Mr. Mark was going to with us, so she said I could go but she would not give me money for the corner store.  She thinks that is wasting money.  I called my dad and he said I could go to the corner store if Mr. Mark was going.  He then talked to Barbara.  She told him she would not let me waste her money at the corner store.  Daddy said give him $2 to $5.  She said okay if she had any change.  She gave me $3 and told me not to spend it all and return the change to her.

Barbara gave me a lecture saying the reason she has been able to save money is because she does not spend it wastefully and she hopes I will one day let her show me how to get ahead financially.  It's easy, but will require some effort on my part.

I read 20 minutes more of Mr Hyde _______.  

I tried on my the clothes we planned for me to wear to my First Communion.  I must have grown since my Reconciliation.  My shirt is a bit short in the sleeves, but I will be wearing a jacket and a bigger shirt would probably be too big.   It will do for this one event.
