Adventures in babysitting

Babysat niece and nephew so their parents could enjoy an Anniversary dinner. 12 years. Wore the kids out outside playing baseball, tennis, soccer, and frisbee. Then watched TV and played with new toys from birthday party. Then it was time for bed. Kids did good job dressing themselves and running around naked. They brushed their teeth without fuss. Storytime was more difficult. Nephew had to test niece's boundaries in her room (spitting on her and hitting her with an electrical cord) leading me to do a timeout. Next parents came home so they took it from there. No tiger toy in bed, no Mommy laying by him, and no good-bye hug from Auntie as his punishment. Next walked Precious until it started raining. Poor kitty.



Today I chopped 7 inches off my hair. I got tired of a ponytail. Then sister wants to take the kids swimming in my apartment pool so she can see what I did. I think I'll go to a hairdresser later on to give my hair layers I like so much, that I have trouble doing on myself.
