Despite the yard being mostly dry, except where I watered, the kids look like Spawn of the Swamp Thing. The Boy is so muddy I can barely tell what color his tshirt is. That's talent.

In other news, we have an appointment in Leavenworth on Thurs to apply for Head Start for the kids. Wish us luck, and an open spot.

Talked to Sis briefly this morning. Crazy Aunt Kathy was on her way to Tx to pick MPU up, because she didn't think that Sis would rise to the occasion. His next hearing is at 815 tomorrow, somewhere in southern Ks. CAK seemed to think Sis would drop everything to drive his drunk ass home afterwards. Not likely. I told Sis to refer CAK to me after this; maybe that'll get CAK off Sis's back.

By's dad is in India this week running training sessions, Nephew is well enough to be back in day care as of yesterday (yay!), and we've got cooler weather and a chance of rain tomorrow. Think that's all the news.

The kids are clean and settled into the living room playing, the water's been mopped up off the bathroom floor, and I have a mostly dry shirt. Still need to scrub the mud and debris* out of the tub, as soon as they're quiet enough for me to sneak away.



* How does a little boy with short, straight hair get so many stick-tights, bits of twig, and grass seed to stick in hair?
