New Fitbit

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

My Fitbit has slowly been falling apart.  Last week it actually came apart.  I asked Rachel to superglue the band back together.  Unfortunately, the glue must have run a bit and it went over the button used to check the time.  Then last night, it fell apart once and for all.  So this morning I ordered a new Fitbit.

We drove the kids to school today.  It was slightly warmer though still in the high 30's.

Later in the morning I went to one meeting, then to Best Buy to pick up the Fitbit and then to Aaron's.

Meanwhile, Rachel went for a check up with the doctor.  All of the tests last week came back negative.

In the afternoon it seemed much colder.  We drove to pick the boys up from school because Rachel needed to get home quickly to get to tutoring.

The boys and I watched a couple Simpsons episodes later in the afternoon while waiting for Rachel to get home.

For dinner, we had steak and tilapia.  The boys both ate steak.  Rachel had the tilapia.

The boys are getting ready for bed.

Until next time...

Very Hectic Day

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Today ended up being a hectic day.  I had an early meeting at Starbucks.  The meeting ended up going long.  From there I went to get my hair cut.

Meanwhile, Rachel was cleaning the house and then she went to the Verizon store to get her new phone that came yesterday all set.  Rachel was able to turn in another phone of ours for another $200 credit.  Unfortunately, the whole process took a really long time.

Rachel was going to go to Evan's holiday party at his classroom but she was stuck at Verizon, so she asked me to go.  All the kids were reading some stories they wrote.  They had to write about a memorable time for them.  I thought at first that Evan's might be about a baseball game.  Then I thought it would be about Flash.  My second thought was correct.  Evan read a very well written story about the day we got Flash.  It was really nice.

We picked up the boys but only Evan came home with us.  Noah got invited over to a boy's house after school.  We had never heard of this boy.  In fact, Noah has flat out refused to tell us what he does at recess every day.  Well this boy invited Noah and 3 other kids over for a playdate.  When we met the mom who was bringing them all home, she said her son had told her these five kids play together at recess every single day.  It was really nice to find out that Noah has been doing well at school socially.  And he seemed really excited to be with the four other kids.

For dinner Rachel and Noah had tilapia.  Evan and I had fried matzoh.

The boys just showered and are going up to bed.

Until next time...

Sick Rachel

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Rachel seems to have a cold.  It could be a reaction from the flu mist she got the other day.  She did come us to go to school this morning.  It was raining (or misting really) this morning so we drove.

I ran some errands around lunch.  I went to the bank, picked up some propane at HEB and went to Smoothie King.

We drove to pick the boys up from school.

For dinner, I grilled steaks and Rachel made her self tilapia.  The boys asked me to make their steak kind of spicy like I make my steak.  At first Evan said he didn't like it spicy but then he ate a ton of it.

The boys took their showers and are in their room.

Until next time...

A Case of the Mondays

Hello everyone, this is Monday.

We drove to school today to bring Stevie back to school.

I went out for a meeting for a bit.  Rachel stayed at home.

On the way back from the meeting I stopped at Target to get a few things and then on to Smoothie King.

This afternoon, we walked to pick the boys up from school.  Both boys were in a good moods.

Rachel tutored this afternoon.

For dinner, Rachel had tilapia and I grilled steaks for the boys and me.

The boys took showers and are now in their rooms.

Until next time...
