Week before School 7-20 to 7-30 2014

Then

we rode the bike around 9:30 to the gas station Zarah got a blue freezy
and then decided that she wanted an Orange Sherbert Pushup instead

 So I
ate the Freezy.  Azure
and Brooklynn got back and they played in the house for a while. I
stained one of the teak tables in the barn while listening to Taylor
Swift fearless thru my EVs  Zarah Played Minecraft and played with
pink Playdoh and looked at a barbie and the pink dolphin book by herself
in
the tent. I checked in on her every few minutes. She was very content by
herself. After a while she came into the Barn and we I played “A whole New World” Through the P.A. Zarah sand along through a microphone.

 Then
I let her drive the golf cart around the drive way for a while, while
she sat on my lap. I was surprised at how well she did.


Then
Zarah and I rode the Golfcart to the house and filled up all of the 1
gallon milk containers for the chickens water. Zarah was very helpful.
Brooklynn
and Azure made “Sweet Tarts” by combining flour and lime and
strawberries and hersheys syrup and I don’t know what all. And Yudi baked
it in the oven.

I started making the Blue apron Dinner
around 3:45 the girls practiced Spanish with Yudi.Yudi said if they
did good she would get them each a beanie boo. Some how I ended up being the one ordering and paying for them.

The girls watched part of the Owl cartoon “Legend of the Guardians” in the basement.


McVey
called me and asked me where I was making my Videos at… I told him..
out in the barn.. He was like…”I Knew it…” Your secret is safe with
me…” I was like “what secret.? ” I am not hiding it…. I am making a
musical resume… to show what seeing me perform is like…. So as a shameless plug I have added one here.

.


I made Fettecinini Alfredo and took it to the tent for the girls and I to eat later. It was really good actually.


Frank Deeya and Buku ate the
Blue Apron we made. I gave Azure a guitar lesson outside of the tent by the firepit.
We worked on “Beautiful Day“… Azure had the chords down really good I was
surprised.

But
once I tried to get her to sing along with it. The tears started
falling. …. and we ended up with our usual talk about self confidence
etc…..


Once
it started getting dark we watched “How to train your dragon 1” in the
tent. I tried to watch a little of INCEPTION around 10:30… We crashed
out around 11:00 or so…


TUESDAY July 22nd 2014


I got up at 7:00 Started azure some bathwater in the piano room bathroom. Made a coffee for deeya.

Deeya listened to the Bible on a podcast. Yudi made pancakes for Buku. I made Krave for
Azure. I made Oatmeal for me….


Got the girls

now…..

Deeya
went to Carlas doctors appointment. I was going to go. I took a
shower… etc.. but decided at the last minute that it would be a mess
with Zarah there.

Zarah
and I rode the red bike to McClure Gas station. I got Zarah a root beer.
Then we rode to The Antique Store Near the house. She liked a pink zebra striped chair that they had.

 We got home about
noon. Brooklynn and Azure were outside dancing. Yudi was taping it with
her phone. The girls took turns riding the golfcart around the driveway.



Brooklynn and Azure started experimenting with food again. mixing bananas and syrup….etc… Yudi
and them went out to the hen house and collected all of the eggs and brought
them in the house. I said Yudi you can’t use those some of those have been out
there for months.

So Zarah and I got back on our bikes and rode down to the gas
station. I got a veggie burger from burger king. Zarah got a blue freezy. and I got a dozen eggs. The girls cooked.


Then they went to walmart and went swimming. Deeya came back from her appointment with Carla and her doctor. .


I
called avertest around 3:30 and found out that “Gray” got called. Deeya
Zarah and I went to Avertest. The whole thing was done by 4:15/ I was
surprised how fast it was. Deeya called Luce she is sick and had a
kidney infection.

I put “Minion Rush” Game on my Iphone for A&Z

We got back from Avertest and I made Dinner from the Blue apron stuff. Frank went to the grocery store.
Everyone
ate dinner. A kid named Taylor came over and played my Gibson J-50
from like 8 to 10… weird. He was a nice kid from Lebanon.  But I can’t seem to decide to get rid of it.


Azure Zarah and I went out to the tent at 10:30 and watched most of Frozen. Then we went to
sleep.

Friday July 25th 2014

Got
Azure up and helped got her off to Golf Camp. Zarah was upset because
she couldn’t go. I let her drive around the path in the golf cart 3
times. She does really good. It surprizes me. Then I asked Zarah what
she wanted to do. She said that she wanted to go to that store we went
to yesterday. I figured out she meant the antique store around the
corner.  We went to the Speedway. I got us a Krispy Kreme Donut and a
Blue Freezy… We sat out on the side walk and ate it. It was nice out.
We got back on
the bike and went to the Antique place.


Zarah
watched Annie AGAIN. When Azure and Zarah (they went to JUSTICE after
golf camp ) got back they all played in the living room throwing a
“frisbee” cloth and wire back an forth over the balcony and back. this
went on for quite a long time. around 4:00 I started making dinner from
Blue apron. Zarah wanted to help. She peeled all the garlic cloves. She
did a SUPER job I was very impressed. Soon Azure wanted to join in . She
cut the stems off the Baby Squash. And then Brooklynn Joined in she cut
the stems off the Zuchini. I did the rest. I ate some later. It was
pretty good.


The girls had been asking when the Beanie Boos would arrive. We had not seen a UPS or fedex truck yet.

But then it dawned on me that they might come regular mail So I asked Yudi to run over and
check the mail box. They were in there. The Girls went nuts. Azure got “Duke” and Brooklynn got “Ice Cube”

Courtney
texted and asked what time to pick the girls up. I said I wanted to
keep them til Tuesday. Azure has her make up Golf Lesson.


The girls really didn’t like the dinner so I think Frank made them some Cereal. We started Annie again.
Soon Both Girls fell asleep on the mattress on the floor. I decided to sleep too. We were all in bed by 9:45 P.M.

 Remembering Julie Elliott

We rode the bikes to that gas station again .Azure got Reece cups Zarah got some baby bottle dipper thing.
Azure made a small finger puppet stage and entertained Zarah for about an hour. I worked for a long time trying to install some
mods for Minecraft on the laptops. After several hours of on again off again working on it I finally
installed an Animal mod and a furniture mod. Azure was really happy about it.


We
watch some of Annie and some of Hop.Then we watched my “Osolomeo”
concert on the wall using one of my EV speakers for sound. Azure seemed
to get inspired because she asked for a guitar lesson afterwards. We ran
through beautiful day several times but soon into it Azure was tearing
up again. Had another long talk. Things seem better after that.


I
helped them make a fort in the basement out of chairs and blankets.

asleep about 10:30 Azure about 11:30. Me about Midnight.
