Kelly and I already got a lot accomplished today – and it’s just a bit after 4pm. Chase pointed out last night that Garry (the Axolotl) needed a bath because his little pink body was very dirty. I tried giving…

I expected a quiet day – but it got busier as the day went on. After breakfast Kelly and I went to the used book sale at the library. She bought several classics for home-school classes, and I got 2…
