October 18-24

It was another emotional roller coaster week for us and not many pictures or much to say but I’m on such a blogging roll I don’t want to skip a week.

Track on Sunday for Ally and Becky had Youth Group.


On Monday this hilarious costume arrived. Ally’s teammates decided on a group costume and this was the decision. 5 girls including Ally are this and 3 are something even weirder. 








Ally is incredibly embarrassed by this costume but is being a good sport. The girls are having a Halloween party after practice on the 30th and even though Ally has not been to practice in months they still include her as part of the team.


Daisy has been using the new bean bag as her cat bed.


But was in for a shock Tuesday when Daisy had to go to the Vet for her annual check up. Daisy cried so loud Ally literally ran her to the car.


And immediately took her out of the carrier. Daisy calmed down and snuggled right in to Ally.


With COVID there are new procedures at the vet. You call when you get there and then bring your pet to the door and then someone meets you outside. You are no longer allowed to go inside with your pet.
We have been going to the same veterinarian for 18 years now. He has literally seen Ally grow up as well as our pets. So Ally brought Daisy to meet him and did the hand off her self. You can see them in the mirror above. 
Daisy was in excellent health and had lost 2 pounds which is fantastic. 

Wednesday Becky got a COVID test to make sure she was negative before starting to teach in person. We found out later that day the in person teaching was being postponed again. 


Thursday Ally went into her school for 2+hours of Academic testing. She really did not want to go at all. But she sucked it up, went to school and took 130 minutes of testing without stopping for a break! I took her out for her favorite frozen yogurt afterwards.


On Friday Ally went next door to Maya’s house for school. There they are both doing remote learning on their laptops.
Friday after school was another 8th grade social. The highlight for me is that Ally played ping pong with me for 10-15 minutes at the end. 


Saturday we had a variety of plans all not work out so in the end I read a book, Ally watched tv in her room and Beth and Becky finally watched Hamilton.


By the time Saturday night rolled around Ally asked for some hot cocoa and nillas wafers and life was pretty normal again.

I can hardly wait to blog about October 25-31. It’s half way thru and it’s amazing!
