The New and the Restless

On Friday night, Rhonda took John swimming, while I stayed home with Hanna and got the yard mowed. John was a little restless, and he needed to burn off some energy.

He asked me if I was going swimming too, and I said no, just you and Mommy. He then asked "Are you too old?", and I laughed and said yeah, I'm too old. Then John said "I'm new!", meaning "I'm young!". Ha.

That was the first time I mowed this year. Was getting a little long, but with all the rain we've had, I haven't been able to do it when I've had time. It's rained the past 2 or 3 Saturdays.

There was a big chess tournament in town, just ended yesterday. Made me wonder if John is ready to start learning the game. I wonder if it would be something he'd take to. He has a good mind. Just a matter if he's ready to be patient and learn.

I put their new hot wheels bike together for the kids. We had to put the seat way up so they could reach the pedals. They'll have to grow a bit more.

Tonight is the season finale of 24. My rantennae are already crackling.
