We took a ride to the marina with MIL just to get her out of the house. It was chilly, but the rain didn’t start till we got home, so there’s that. Then I ordered pizza, which we’ve just finished eating.

Yep, excitement central here.

Earlier I rearranged the furniture in the basement and set up MIL’s TV down there for our use. I’ll be getting rid of that gawd-awful FireTV - we hates it we do!!! I also stayed down there reading for a while because it was quiet - MIL needs the TV volume cranked up and even at that, she’s constantly asking “What did they say?” So I hid in the peaceful lower level. I think that may become my new favorite place!

Daughter sent pics of the kids at my niece’s house. My sister had a stroke of genius - for the egg hunt, each kid was assigned a color and those were the only eggs they could pick up. That’s because last year, Grayson went on a tear and grabbed most of the eggs before the other kids had a chance. This year, they could only take eggs that matched their baskets. Brilliant, methinks!

But I’m glad we weren’t there. My family can be LOUD and I just wasn’t in the mood for that. Chillage is the order of the evening.
