Happy Homemaker 2026-08-31

 Good morning 

Feeling better than last week, no news from doctor, should get some results soon.  As for the feet that still hurts but no exam until a few months, so... on we go.

Saturday was housechores in the morning, Xavier's baseball in the afternoon and for supper decided to go to restaurant and ds, ddil and grandkids came with us.  Afterwards took a small walk with them before going back home.

Sunday, after baseball game, came home to no electricity from 3:30 to 6:30, so that was pretty quiet here.

Grandkids all start school this week.  Xavier (grade 1) and Anne-E (kindergarten) going to English school in town, long school bus trip, but worth it.  Xavier cried a little - overwhelmed with the 'English' part of school and new school and friends,  on the other hand Anne-E couldn't be prouder than to start school. Alysanne (grade 1) and Ely (kindergarten) also start this week.

Let's join Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom
