French apartment renovations, Day 532: La bataille des lettres

6,316 steps

I spent all of my free time working on the Amish breech birth manual. Lots of sitting and typing and clicking.

I brought Ivy to the beach for a quick swim right before dinner. Within a few minutes of going in, she got stung by a jellyfish and came out shrieking. The water was very cloudy today and we couldn't see well enough to spot jellyfish. So that cut her swimming short. I was just about to get in when she got stung so I missed out on swimming too.

A few days ago, we got a letter in the mail (with a hand-drawn stamp) from "Miss Inga." It said:






Dear Mr. & Mrs. FREEZE,

Your child (Ivy Freeze) has been a really bad student the last couple of weeks. She has gotten punished SO many times. She has not been working when we need to work, been talking when she is NOT supposed to. THIS IS A VERY BIG PROBLEM!!!

Please talk to your child *as soon as possible.* This is very important.

Yours sincerely,
Miss Inga

Then today, we got another letter in the mail from "Madame Musi" in what looked suspiciously like Ivy's handwriting.

This letter said (spelling errors are original):


Cher parent d'Ivy,

Ivy a une très mauvaise comportement. Elle est très agité tout le temps. Elle se lève. Elle ne travaille jamais. Elle parle et tape les autres, elle m'a frapé plusieurs fois. S'il vous plait, repondait tout de suite. Elle ne veut pas être gentille avec une seule personne. Elle a la tète en guère, elle s'occupe toujours de ses cartes Pokémon, de sa trousse, de jamais faire ce que on la dit.

Mme Musi
