“Quarantine” Day #029

  1. Breakfast for mama : Jelly Babies (Collette!)
  2. Yali and Patience watch road workers prepare the street for new cement; when Puck discovers that fresh cement will be poured, he tells me slyly, “You know I’m going to go out there and step in that…”; I guess someone has to
  3. Road workers knock our mailbox off its post
  4. Take Yali and Patience on a cold afternoon walk; Yali trips and slams head-first into the sidewalk, creating a small red-spotted bump on his forehead; he survives
  5. Yali later floods the bathroom during his early evening bath

Yali, singing to himself late that afternoon…

“You’d better watch out. You’d better not cry. Santa Claus is coming to town… No he’s not!…” He looked carefully at me and said, “I learned that in my brain.”
