July 5 - We went “camping” for the holiday. Three of us can’t really fit on a queen-sized air mattress. Ian slept great, but Shrop and I are feeling stiff and old this morning.

July 6 - Ian: [describing some outdoor location he assumed had marble floors]

Me: "Well, it probably wasn't marble. That would be really expensive to do on that scale."

Ian: "So marble is really expensive?"

Me: "Yeah."

Ian: "So ... does it lose value when they break it up and turn them into marbles? Because bags of those are SUPER cheap."

July 27 - I clenched my fists and growled at my kid today. Just in case you thought you were the only one not handling your shit.

July 29 - My victory this week is helping Ian rearrange his bedroom so that he could have more sunlight over his desk and additional space for drawing. Because I knew he wouldn't understand spatially how things fit in his room and I didn't want to show him by dragging furniture around to locations it wouldn't fit, I made a graph paper model of his room and cut out little pieces of furniture for him to move around and decide on their locations. Everybody wins. And that was my CrossFit routine for the week.
