I had another laser hair removal appointment this morning (in the now-remodeled building), and then Mom and I went shopping for groceries. We wanted to grab a few things like chips, soda, and buns for hamburgers and hot-dogs. I asked her if we could get some liquid cheese dip too, because I wanted to put it in the chip and dip pottery bowl that I made years ago. We've had salsa in it before, but never cheese. When the party started and I came outside with it, Matt swam over with Anne and reached up for them. Grandpa made begging sea lion noises too. Stockton's not a fan of cheese, but even he wanted to get in on the chip action. What fun!
People swam. I can't be in the sun for a week before or after my laser hair removal treatments, but since it was shady and getting late, I took my laptop outside and wrote while snacking on nachos and ice cubes. It was perfect! Nice to have a change of environment, and since Cathy (and later my dad) had their laptops too, it was awesome to be able to watch other people enjoy themselves while I did something that I enjoyed, and without having to feel guilty.
