I think I may be a genius! I know, tooting my own horn but after you hear this, you’ll agree. So about 8 years ago, when I was living in my little grey house on Mountain View Road, I got a couple of kittens (Jack and Diane). Don’t ask me why, I’m allergic to cats but I guess it was for the company and who doesn’t think kittens are cute?! So Diane has since “gone missing” and it’s only Jack left and I can’t pet him much or else my eyes swell shut and I sneeze uncontrollably. I know this doesn’t show my pure genius just yet but stay with me….Levi LOVES animals. He talks to bugs and worms and birds and wants to pet any dog we pass by in the park. SO…I’ve made one of his daily jobs to go out on the back porch and pet Jack each morning. He loves it, and I feel like a better pet owner and the thing with Levi is he’s such a clean freak that he comes in and immediately washes his hands after petting the cat, so no allergy issues for me! Like I said, pure genius!
The big boys got new backpacks for school and they haven’t taken them off since they got them. Funny part is, they are almost bigger than they are!
Last night we had family dinner with Mary and Alice, it was wonderful. Mary brought short ribs from Central Market (about the best thing ever) and we had a great dinner then weeded the garden and harvested veggies while the kids played in the yard. I had thought it was Kathy Schott’s birthday and got a hideously bright flowery cupcake cake to celebrate. Well, her birthday is a month away so we ate the cupcakes and sang Happy Birthday to her anyway! The kids thought it was fun and liked having cupcakes!

No big plans for the day, just hanging around. Going to try to go to the BHS football game tonight. Time to pull out the boy’s jerseys!
