Back to the beginning OR the last chapter.



.Bertie stopped by to make some fried rice at the gym, which is close to both the bus stop band stand and the science lab as well as a few community dumpsters. Both Grandma and I stopped by gym and grabbed plates while we there. Also while I was there, I saw Thomas working out. (Seriously, I was not and am not stalking him; but, I did take the opportunity to chat with him while I was there.)


Grandma went on to pick perfect plants and Bertie went off to practice piano.


At home, the dogs keep each other company.



I, of course, stayed and hung out with Thomas. One thing lead to another and before I knew it, we were engaged!


I was a bit shell shocked and wandered over to examine some special seeds I had. Unfortunately, while trying to sell the seeds I didn’t want, I also lost the seeds I had wanted to keep. Oh well, I wandered home in time to celebrate little Jimmy’s birthday.

Grandma wandered off to do her own thing. I guess if you have SEVEN cars, it might be a wise investment to have your own petrol!



Just what did this day bring in terms of home improvements? You might not notice a lot, but the third flat basement bedroom now has a wardrobe, our kitchen finally has a stove, and all the flats have televisions.


Of course, what happens when you put in a few big-ticket items? A burglar wants what you have! Sigh. The burglar and patrolling officer got into a fight. the burglar won and ran off. BUT, nothing was stolen and we only lost some precious sleep time.
On to the next chapter.
