Long Saturday...

Today felt like the day that was never going to end!  We got up and I decided I didn't feel like going out to yard sales although I had planned on it throughout the week.  I just didn't feel like rushing out and haggling with people today.  I opened all the windows today because there was a cool breeze today. 

In the garden three more of my tomato plants had crashed to the ground.  This has never happened before.  I have the wire cylinder thingies around them but I guess they are just so heavy.  Now five have taken a nose plant.  I hope they don't die because they have fallen.  Four green tomatoes were laying on the ground.  I hope they can somehow ripen.  (Mom said to wrap them in newspaper... so here's hoping!)  With my luck, all my tomatoes will be ready when I am on vacation and Melanie will enjoy a bounty of tomatoes! 

Morgan played with the local neighborhood girls today.  My heart broke for her today but I tried to put a stop to that!  Morgan was swinging on our swing set with our neighbor M.  Then another girl R with a new neighbor came over said something I didn't hear and M jumped down and started running off with R and new neighbor.  Morgan shouted after them, "I thought you were playing with me?"  M shouted back, "Maybe later."  Ouch!  So not fair... as I watched Morgan's face get sad and she just kept swinging by herself.  I told Morgan to follow them and ask if she could play too.  She followed them and played at new neighbor's house for a while.  Then I saw R, M. and new neighbor run by our house and Morgan tagging behind saying wait for me.  Morgan stopped at our driveway and said, "R is being so mean.  She said only they could come with her to her house."  With that I said you know what, that wasn't a very nice thing to do, and I think you can go over there.  Just go play... and with slight questioning she followed my direction and ran towards R's house.  She didn't come home for almost two hours so I am thinking it worked out.  I need to email R's mom and let her know what happened... just to make sure I didn't overstep by bounds... but I hate that R is so bossy and often dictates who she will play with. 

Morgan is so sweet and innocent... and I hate, HATE to see her being walked all over at such a young age.  And she doesn't realize what is happening which breaks my heart even more.  Today she knew R wasn't being nice though!! 

I cleaned up around the house some, but it doesn't look like I did anything.  I HATE that!


Tonight we joined MeMom, Pop Pop, and Felicity at Chick-fil-A for supper.  Morgan and RJ enjoy seeing their cousin.  Came home, played a little bit and went to bed.

Bo/Daddy wasn't feeling great today so with my germ issues I banished him to the the master bedroom.  I will sleep in the Guest Room.  Wish I wasn't such a germ-a-phobic... but I can't handle germs.... they make me sick myself just thinking about them!
