During Pod Time at Odyssey. During Odyssey D&D. In the pool in the backyard, to the degree that the neighbors texted (again) to say how wonderful it was to hear them laughing and… cursing.

They curse a lot. But it’s pre-teen cursing, not BAD cursing.

We also had to stop laughing and Beware.

Claudia showed serious interest in Plutarch’s Parallel Lives. She may be serious about this classics thing.

And oh yes indeed I did begin a bit of holiday shopping this week. I usually do no later than August but sales are very good now.

And we got back to reading Riddley Walker tonight. Wow do they recall every detail of this book.

Good day.
