Life With the Gkids - and Their Parents

Everyone was home today. Daughter Dawn and Todd were extremely busy all day. Todd started early this morning on the major plumbing project he is working on. He is putting new septic drains into the bathrooms. In the process, he is moving the washer and dryer into a separate laundry area and using the space they were in to re orient the main bathroom layout.

What it meant to all the rest of us was there was no water available today, nor were there toilet facilities. Todd got everyone up early to do their business before he shut things down, but Dawn and Granddaughter Kyra and I made a late morning run to Fred Meyer for a grocery run and a potty stop. Todd hooked things back up temporarily before supper, but is back working on getting the washer and dryer installed this evening.

In between he Saturday cleaning, Dawn used the leftover crab and the fresh corn we had gotten during our trip to the coast to make a batch of corn chowder this morning. We enjoyed it outside with homemade corn bread.

The Gkids spent a good portion of the day binge watching the latest season of Dr Who on NetFlix. Kyra had to go to work at three at her job as a life guard at the Croc Center in Salem.
