Today was the first day of spring break. Spring break is different at our house. Tommy has no classes but I wanted to go over math problems that he's having a hard time with. He also has a self-paced online class that he's behind on, so I wanted him to do that. Normally we play at Sloppy's on Mondays, but we got bumped for Kenny Chesney, so we had today off. We are always happy to have days off.
To start the day off, I went walking. I walked out to No Name Key and back. It was neat walking on the bridge, but the 20 mph winds were a bit much, and it was a chilly 65 degrees.
When the boys got up Ed amd Ben helped Tom and I go through more of the stuff that was still downstairs. We've been through it all now. I'm anxious for Tom to hang my wicker swing and my hammock chairs, even though I can't really decide the best place to put them. After that, I started to feel my cold getting worse, a runny stuffy nose and just that feeling in my head that I'm sick. So my energy was all gone. I spent the afternoon on the couch. I wanted to go to Ave C and get my plants today but it will have to wait. I didn't even have the energy to quilt.
After a while I did go with Tom to Salvation Army and we got rid of that pile from downstairs. The boys played hockey and I made Spicy Thai soup and baked sweet potatoes. Tom came back from hockey with an injury. He got hit in the face with a puck, just over his left eye. J.C. doctored him up, but then Tom showered and it kept bleeding. Ed and Ben had to doctor him after that. They all need to wear helmets and face shields.
Around 10 PM Ed went to Winn Dixie and brought home pizzas and ice cream. Oh, I forgot. I taught Tommy how to make the salad while the other boys played hockey. I need to delegate more. :0)
