I’ve been doing 5 minute runs in the house with A. This is helpful. It is more fun than the treadmill.

I was going to walk with M. today, but R. got up late so while I had a visit we did not walk. I got a one mile when R. got up, and then two more loops later on. That’s better than I had been doing.

R. took T. to his swim lesson.

Everyone but me had a piano lesson today. We asked F. to go over This Little Light of Mine with A., as it had been assigned in a slightly weird form for her class. There was a google chrome plug in piano, but the song had a G7 and the plug in could only do G, so ... whatever.

I hung the lego Minnie in the upstairs hall at the top of the stair. A. is correct, those are eyelashes and they look a little odd. Or maybe they are animated-style eyebrows? I dunno.

Her migraine glasses arrived; they are better than the super cheap blue light glasses I got her. They seem to be helping.

A. went with the sitter. The sitter was apparently pretty relentlessly talking politics (she’s quite Trumpian conservative, so she was bemoaning the keystone pipeline being shut back down, and people losing their jobs, and restaurants going out of business, and she doesn’t like the President, etc.). When A. realized that it was not possible to distract her, she started carefully listening to remember so she could tell me what the sitter said. NOT because she was believing her; she wanted to make as complete and accurate a report as possible. _This_ kid has got it figured out. She still likes watching TV with the sitter, and getting takeout, but she’s feeling pretty negative about talking to the sitter, so probably she’s going to only go hang out maybe every couple of weeks. We hope that the political talk settles down in coming weeks, but I, for one, am not too optimistic.

We played Goat Lords! It was fun. I did not shuffle very well, so it was super easy to get matches / births.

Also in recent lego: I finished up the White House today. I also did Dragon Dance Guy Brick Headz, and I started Story of Nian. All of those sets are incredibly cute.
