Eric and Inga got back tonight from a weekend tournament in Lexington, KY. They left yesterday at lunchtime. The kids helped me with some indoor and outdoor chores (lots of leaf raking in particular) while I laid brick edging for our raspberry bed.
We re-watched several episodes of Arcane to get ready for the new season coming out, 3 yesterday and 3 today.
After dinner yesterday, we had a gorgeous bonfire and Smores. Ivy was feeling sick all day, so she stayed inside and had a long bath instead of coming out for the fire.
Today was also quite relaxed. I took Zari driving to practice the stick shift. We stayed in the high school parking lot so she could drive without the stress of other cars. She did well for her first time driving stick and only killed the car twice in 30 minutes. Although it stresses her out, it's good to at least know the basics of driving a manual transmission. I doubt I'll be able to convince her to do much more of it...but it's a start!
Zari has been enjoyed the telephoto lens she got for her birthday present. It fits on my BWB Nikon as well as her camera (my old Nikon) that is back in France. She's been taking a photography class this semester, so it's a nice fit with her interests.
I woke up at 3 am this morning from a nightmare about Ivy doing handstands and breaking her neck, paralyzing herself. Then I couldn't get back to sleep for hours. So much for getting extra sleep when Daylight Saving Time ends!
