We got up a little after 8, did the pet stuff and had breakfast. I texted Hooch about his plans, but he didn't respond right away. We just surfed for awhile.
I got Hooch's reply a little before 11. He said they weren't doing much, so we went up there. When we got there the kids were "cleaning" their rooms. Julia was gathering up knitting stuff and Hooch was just hanging out. We talked with Hooch for awhile until one of his friends showed up with a ew GSP puppy.
Alicia found out I couldn't eat anything and fixed me lemon pudding. It was quite an involved process. Then she and Ellen used the leftovers to fix cookies.
Everyone oohed and awwed over the puppy for awhile. Then Hooch took his friend out to see Rowdy's kennel. Then he left with his friend to go see the friend's setup. Ellen and I surfed while Martha and Alicia designed blankets.
When Hooch got back we went to Touchmark to retrieve Tony's phone. He had left it on Mother's table. We only stayed a short time. On the way back we stopped at a little neighborhood store. It was nice - sundries, sandwiches, beer on tap, and coffee. I'll probably take Mom there if the weather is nice.
When we got home Sophia wanted Indian food. So we went to a place by the Safeway on Cornell. Hooch didn't want to go because he didn't like the food. Sophia wanted to go so she could go next door and buy candy. Ellen and I thought the food was OK, not great. Hooch pointed out all of the things they did wrong. He said never again. Afterwards we got ice cream next door while the kids went to the Dollar Store for candy.
When we got home the five of them played a game while I surfed and kibitzed. We left a little after nine. I wanted to make sure I got through Lake Oswego before the assholes started shutting down lanes at 10.
When we got home there was a little TV watching and then bed.
