Frontier web check-in attempt: “Your reservation requires special handling.” This doesn’t sound like the beginning of a happy story.

I still have a runny nose but feel ok otherwise. Suspect I’ll be worse by evening but at least morning is ok.

Still under the weather but feel a bit better than last night. I’m crossing my fingers it gets better from here (don’t laugh).

We went to the thrift store and found Duplos so if course we (Grandma) had to buy for future Julian/Caleb visits.

We have magic suction cup bowls!

We’re about to go treasure hunting in the garage. Send in a search party of we don’t report back in an hour or two.

@spreadsheetmom um, we’re back. That was too eady, it must have used a year’s worth of karma.

We are back. Willow is upset we left and I can foresee a night full of her meowing.

It’s amazing how much socializing Calvin will voluntarily do while avoiding chores.

I got back from a hike with @calvinsdad and Calvin was just leaving the house with Julian to hunt zombies. So, the procrastination is still happening. At least he’s getting a bit of exercise out of it.

I have explained to Calvin that tomorrow he will still be on the hook for cleaning but will get to do so without the benefit of audiobooks. This finally seems to have made an impression.

(All other computer/phone entertainment had already been turned off since Saturday night. I thought that would be enough encouragement by itself but apparently not.)

The checklist works! Half-bath is clean with only a minimal number of questions from Calvin.
