My sister Becky came out and brought her kids. It was fun having them over. Becky and I caught up on things, like how I have finals and how she’ll never have finals again. What she’s doing with the whole attorney thing. It’s nice to know what people are doing.

We talked while the kids watched Toy Story. We fixed macaroni and cheese and hot dogs for dinner. She helped me put away the dishes and reminded me that I haven’t used the steamer she let me borrow to take down the border in the living room. I’m going to do it, I’ve just been preoccupied.
