Cookies and Votes

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #01769

Andy had today off of school because many of the schools are used for elections. Today was election day for some local elections. My polling location is La Salette Shrine. It used to be the Elks Lodge but things got moved for some reason. Either way I took class this morning and then headed there for voting.

After voting I took andy over to Tex Barry’s for hot dogs for lunch.

Andy started out the day by making some dough for cookies that they were making for their friends at Rock Climbing. I had seen a recipe that called for graham crackers for the base with mini marshmallows and chocolate chips but then to be covered by a a pre-made cookie dough. Andy decided that making the dough would be better so first thing this morning they were making the dough.

I had to get some brown sugar and I also picked up some take and bake Reese’s pieces cookies. I’ll make my own cookies soon. I did give some cookies to the Sensei’s at ABD because today they asked how Andy was doing. I told them about how Andy had the day off and was making cookies. They really enjoyed me bringing them some when I went back for Eva’s class in the afternoon.

Sorting Transformers ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02424 Yesterday I drove Andy to school. Today I walked over with them. I did so not because I didn't think Andy would be safe on their own. Andy has been walking home from school for well over a year so walking to school is the same thing just in reverse. I wanted to see how long it actually took for the walk to go. I of course, over estimated how early we had to head over. The walk itself only takes a brisk 15 minutes. And that is at a modified teenager's shuffle. So Andy can leave the house around 6:25-6:30 and still get there by 6:45 when the doors open to the High School. Good to know. During the day I started one of the projects I've been meaning to start and have been putting off. I'm sorting through my Transformers and getting them ready to sell. I have talked with the guys at Double Midnight Comics about selling them my collection. Not the stuff I have on display and also I am picking out some figures that I want to keep as part of the collectio...

Time with Lexi ...

  Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02401 Today We watched my sister's dog, Lexi. My sister and her husband were coming back up here from their home and they had boarded the dog. They weren't sure if they'd be there in time to pick her up so we did that for them. We had Lexi for a couple of hours before they arrived and we had dinner together. Lexi was pretty chill for the most part until Torrun came in to the living room to investigate. At first they just looked at each other. Andy grabbed for LEXI's leash and then Lexi tried to go after Torrun. Torrun ended up bolting for the upstairs and we did not see her for hours. James knew enough not to even come down.

Time For Another Change ...

  Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02402 Andy decided to clean their room today. In so doing they decided that they no longer wish to hang on to their LEGO sets. So, I now have them all and I spent the afternoon disassembling many sets to fit into the one bucket. There were many Minecraft sets in there. What I'm going to do eventually is take what is in the bucket and separate it down to the individual sets that I still have instructions books for. The organizing of that is going to be daunting. I will try and figure out an efficient way to separate everything but I'm sure that will take some time. Andy also decided that they no longer want the piggy bank that was mine. That I am putting into a box for Andy for when they get older and maybe have kids of their own.
