My foster granddaughter's mother just picked her up. We had a long day, from 7:30 am, but we did well. We went to lunch and a movie. I let her have vanilla ice cream first, while I ate my food, then we bought her a quesadilla which she had to eat before she could have a candy, though she actually picked a fruit roll up. I like to get the dessert pressure out of the way, and then she concentrates on the main part of the meal. We shopped in a bookstore that is closing, and found a bunny for her, a bunny book, and a book about Tangled. I got five little stuffed animals for both my granddaughters to play with at my house, a children's book about dogs, and two kids' DVDs.
I attempted to look for books for myself, but that was a foolish thought, and I gave up after a few minutes. I'll have to return if I want anything for an adult to read.
We dressed dolls, and fixed their hair, and she dressed up in a Halloween costume from my younger daughter's childhood. I've now straightened the dolls, put away the clothes box, put the stuffed animals back on the shelf and put away the kids' movies. It will have to be an R rated movie tonight, if anything. It was gorgeously sunny and warm today, and the windows are open. I'm thinking about gardening again. Who knows? It may yet come to pass.
