My cousin’s bowl of sprinkles ice cream.
My week in review.
- The government didn’t shut down, which means all the military families got full paychecks today. Yeah!
- I met my cousin for the first time EVER!
- I watched five soccer games.
- I was chased by a snake.
- We spent 1.5 hours trying to get the snake out of our shrubs.
- We no longer have a snake.
- We no longer have shrubs.
- I learned that leftover scalloped potatoes taste great fried up with eggs.
- I took my cousin’s wife to lunch and almost ate a roach.
- We finished another week of school and are one week closer to summer!
- My daughter decided to run for Senator.
