Took Gabe for his fifth day of preschool. He's getting the hang of it. This was the first time he didnt cling to me like I was the last life preserver on the titanic. I think thats because one of the teachers has gotten sweet on him and the feeling is mutual.
They cut out lots of little pieces of paper and glued them together to make an alligator. Mom and I each got our own drawings too. And he's up to counting to 25 and knows the entire alphabet.
Took the dogs to the big nasty muddy lake for a couple of miles of swimming and wallowing while he was being educated, back home for a de-mucking in the shower. Does me no good to take them to the nice lake as they just look morose and give me the "no mud?" dog faces.
After he got out of jail, Gabe and I had lunch at the Hawaiian BBQ joint near his school, took a nap, then went to the nice lake. Where Gabe complained about the lack of mud but made up for it by throwing 30 metric tons of rocks into the water and braving the waves up to his waist before running back to the beach shrieking. A year old great dane puppy came by to bowl him over a couple of times and have a ball thrown 3 dozen times.
Dinner of ratatouille made up from goodies I got from our farm share. And can you believe the little fink drank the ENTIRE glass of milk, even after I told him not to do it because I wanted some
We're now watching a scooby doo movie. Gabe discovered scooby doo a couple of days ago and its apparently the greatest show ever for a 3 year old. Funny looking kids, a talking dog, scary monsters that always turn out to be a guy in a suit that gets caught by the kids and/or the dog, and a policeman that always shows up on time to haul off the bad guy at the end.
I'm thinking the scooby doo kids must be er'd or at least FI, since they appear to have no obvious jobs and plenty of gas money for the mystery mobile...and no end of scooby snacks.
After having watched the show as a kid and now again as an adult, I'm quite certain that shaggy is a stoner, and I have some serious questions about the other guy with the ascot.
