The girls got up and hung out for a while without me while I cleaned up a bit. I didn&#8217;t feel terrible from the ice cream last night, but I didn&#8217;t feel great either. Summer eventually went out to mow while I got showered, and then I made egg and summer sausage croissants for brunch. After we ate, I went out afterward to help trim a bunch of growth around the property. We got rid of most of a tree that had been growing at the corner of the shed, and spent a bunch of time trimming the rose bushes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While we were out there, I must have gotten overheated in the sun or something, because I felt terrible when we came inside. I just had to sit down for a while to recover while Summer showered. It wasn&#8217;t even terribly hot out, but I felt sick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Summer got some laundry going, and Eaddie went with us to my parents&#8217; house for spring rolls for dinner. Summer had to go to work to let the guys at the wash know that they would have a new manager starting with them this week because she was being assigned solely to the lube. Eaddie and I finished eating, then let Muad&#8217;Dib run home next to us. He didn&#8217;t really want to come inside, so I took him for a quick run around the block on the Onewheel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Summer got home, then Eaddie left to shop for some yarn. I cleaned up a little more, and then it was time for bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>I&#8217;m pretty sure I need that to live.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We slept in a little bit today because Muad&#8217;Dib was snuggled up in my arms.
