YAY!! Maybe one of the younger offspring can learn from a sibling and spare you a few gray hairs. (I almost typed “heirs!”)

Back from the library and post office. Downton Abbey didn’t make it into the mix, but I got season 23 of Midsomer. It’s just been such a long time since I watched one.

I was late getting out as I was delayed by a vacuum snag. Literally. The brushes snagged a strand of yarn before I could grab it (in a place I couldn’t see well) and I spent a good 25 minutes taking the brush out of the vacuum and cutting all the hair that has been picked up since I got the darn thing. Why I didn’t think to check it sooner is beyond me, but I won’t wait so long to check again. That was a job for Supermom, and it’s for sure my finger joints will be talking to me in the morning.

I’ve had that happen with the vacuum!

It’s raining here. I’ll wait for it to let up before going to Walmart, which will not be a Pat Driving Event because I don’t feel up to it.

My nap, relocated to the boys’ room, was a failure due to a pervasive odor of Unwashed Boy (sheets and blankets have been removed to the laundry) and banging around from Frank and Kathleen.

They will get Maths. I’m listening to Jonah Goldberg interviewing a guy with a darling little British accent, on the topic of Socialism. After Walmart, I think I’ll need more British accents ... maybe Professor Allitt’s travel lectures, although I’m getting near the end of those.
