My life-is-wonderful me: It was supposed to storm, and although it was cloudy, it was beautiful. We all packed into the car, running late but I stopped for simit, anyhow. I had the stroller and bikes in the trunk, so a big morning planned of soccer, park playing, and American Base junk food. But the games weren't on this weekend. I was turned back at the base - I had misread the schedule and forgotten about American holidays. But we were all ready and packed, so I headed to a new park. It had winding paths, relatively walled in, a slide and stairs just Tuana's size, and the sun had come out. I called a couple of friends that lived nearby, and one stopped by and the other brought her kids, stayed and played. It was beautiful.
My I-cannot-stand-another-minute-of-my-brother-in-law me: He's fasting today. He told me last night he would -translation: he will be unable to assist in anything because he's hungry so he must sleep. After a day at the park, taking them to eat, music class and grocery shopping - I came home. My brother-in-law in formed me he was sleeping.
No kidding.
No really, I just got up.
Don't worry, I don't doubt it one bit.
I'm going to the market now.
I just went.
I'm going to get tuna fish and vegetables for the kids.
You eat tunafish, they don't. I got everything on the list from the fridge.
No really, I'll get it for them.
No really, you don't need to - I got everything, unless you want it for yourself.
No I don't want it for me, just for the kids.
Okay, then stay and help with dinner.
(After dinner)
I'm going to the market to get tuna fish.
I know. I know you are.
