Ethan and Laura are here until Saturday. There is no difference other than the increase in cooking and putting off my class for another day. In the morning Dad and I were out the door early with our youngest to meet Elianna at the tire store to get her tires replaced. We drove her back to Grandma’s and then while we were waiting we went to Aldi to get groceries. We picked up the car and then drove it back out to the farm.

I asked if we could watch Zorro overnight. I didn’t think of it till we had already left so the plan is for us to keep him Friday night into Saturday. “Do you just want some dog time?”, she asked, as I am not one to take on dogs. Yes, I said, plus I was thinking it would give her a little break. It is entirely possible to love people, and I am supposing animals, where you are able to love them more when you can spend some time apart.

In the evening we watched the video of the wedding. It was such a pretty day. Before that we’d had our supper of rice and tacos. The wedding was on Laura’s uncle’s private YouTube channel. Included in his video collections were song recordings of when he’d seen Journey live in Boise, Idaho. So that led us down an minor rabbit trail of love ballads and orchestras which my son taught me how to cast to the television screen.
