It was a lovely spring day here in Columbia. Luke was able to start the day this morning by seeing the moon, which he always loves. We spent the morning building Legos, reading, and riding Duke. After lunch Liz and Luke prepared banana bread, which we ate after Luke’s three hour nap. Then we went to the nature park. Luke watched me mow the back field on the tractor while Liz prepared dinner. That is something he really enjoys. After he nursed and went to bed I went back out and mowed until it started raining. I’ll finish up tomorrow when Luke can watch me again.
A somewhat productive day.
Luke was in great spirits and we had a lot of fun. He spent a lot of time watching Mr. Jerry our next door neighbor cut grass. We also read and built Legos. During nap I mowed some in the back field, until I ran out of fuel. It sure felt good to be on the tractor. Uncle Matt sent some stuff from New Orleans which Luke opened and cluttered up the house with. After Liz finished work we walked around out back. Then dinner, bath, and bedtime.
Quarantine day 42668.
Today was busy and chilly. Liz and Luke started us off with some breakfast cookies this morning. Luke had remote speech therapy at 10:15. He didn’t get a lot out of it, but that’s okay as our expectations are pretty low until he can start going in person. We built lots of Legos, read a little, and rode on his new horse Duke, a birthday gift from my parents. During Luke’s nap I went next door with the tractor and helped Jerry smooth out his driveway in preparation for his getting gravel delivered. After Liz got off work I drove up to Monteagle and picked up ladders and scaffolding, got pizza at the Goat Market, and picked up a few things at the cottage. I couldn’t pull up to the house for the ladders because the end of the driveway was all rutted out. Eric told me that they had 6.5 inches of rain on Sunday afternoon. I had planned to buy a bunch of things at Piggly Wiggly, but they closed at 7:30 and I arrived at 7:45. It was nice to be out of the house, but I didn’t get home until nearly eleven.
