Tyler buying Chris a present.
Tyler went to the estate sale with Barry and I. He had $13 left in his "estate sale fund." They'd made it to be some big deal sale, so I added $25, and since that was $38, rounded it up to $40. He spent the biggest part of it on Chris, and also got something for Shawn.

Angela got her loan ap turned in yesterday, which was the deadline. She had to jump through a lot of hoops to make that happen.

Shawn, at the doctor's office. Visiting. Telling me about how he and his friend stay up late, looking at the ceiling, in the dark, talking about life. He talked about trust. He talked about Destiny. Love. That he thought he felt it before, but that this felt different. That he and some friends had been watching a show on t.v. and they said something about what of the characters being hot, and he said, "I can't look at her like that. I have a girlfriend." And that he'd been proud of himself for that.
Tyler noticing that I stepped off the curb carefully. (The back of my leg hurts.)
Angela's text, July 6, "I Graduate December 10," and then five various happy, smiling, grinning emoticons.
Tori's website is going live. Angela said it involved some new technology, but I've already forgotten what it was about. Tor's text to me said that She was really happy with it and that her team seemed happy with it to. She said, "I had to do a client presentation today, a small one, but they still make me nervous. Went well though." When I read that, my mind jumped to her first words "Would you please move the table in front of the t.v." I texted her that, and we both laughed.
Got to hear from Brittany and Morgan this week. Brittany's leg is healing and she should be back running in a couple of weeks. Morgan and Brandon are moving out of their apartment today.
Kennedy and I had a fun conversation about a book I heard about -- 10 sonnets written so that the lines are interchangeable.
Evan and Chelsea came for dinner Tuesday, and we had a nice visit.

Tyler. ...easier to do the kitchen now that he knows where everything goes.
He was almost finished, and I was making a cup of tea, stirring the sugar. He realized he had a mixing bowl left to wash and said, "Don't do you just hate that?" I said I did, and then changing to amusing tone, "When you get the sink all cleaned out and some old hag comes and drops a spoon in it." I laughed, and so did he. Then he said, "You aren't a hag. ..... And you aren't old....... And you are taking care of me." I told him that taking care of him was a joy and a privilege.

Had a fun conversation with Kennedy re: a quote she emailed me a long time ago. I keep it in my bill box, so sent her a picture of it. She sent me a new, really great quote. "Do not be daunted by the enormity of the world's grief. Do justly, now. Love mercy, now. You are not obligated to complete the work, but neither are you free to abandon it." Kennedy said "I feel like it could be interpreted in a thousand different ways, but it reminds me to acknowledge the issues around me while still working to build myself, and everyone around me to a point where those issues can be be openly addressed. I believe I read the quote in an "Ask Me Anything," with a social worker, so I figured if it kept her sane, I should try it out.
