Today Natalie and I decided to stay in instead of going into DC or out anywhere. This morning I took Laura to the Metro and headed over to Panera to do some reading and to do some stuff on my computer. For the past three days I have been able to go to Starbucks or Panera to read my Bible and another book. It's good to set some time away in the early morning to do this. After I returned home, I took Bailey for a walk. Natalie woke up and got ready and we headed over to Chick-fil-a for free small chicken biscuits (apparently each say this week at a certain Chick-fil-a they are giving out certain free breakfast items) It was good :); plus, I bought this Peach Milkshake which was not bad. I had been told it was really sweet. Yes, it was sweet but not too sweet.
Later we just hung around the house. We did some cleaning: I cleaned some of the counters in the kitchen. I wanted to some cleaning for Mike and Laura; I mean we have been living in their house, eating their food, etc. so this was a way of giving something back :) Later in the afternoon Natalie and I drove to Giant's for some food for dinner (I took directions this time! I had taken directions for Chick-fil-a earlier was well. After that touring northern VA incident, I thought it good to have directions :)).
We came home from Giant's and a little later Natalie and I made dinner. We made a bacon and chicken cheese sauce to put on the pasta we cooked. Then for a vegetable I threw together some different veggies from Mike and Laura' freezer. I put broccoli, spinach, and cauliflower together with some cheese(of course!)
Later on I picked Laura up from the Metro station and we headed home to dig into our cheesy dinner. It turned our to be ok. The sauce was not as tasty as I would have liked. However, we had brownies later on which were good. After dinner Laura, Natalie, and I headed over to the community pool for a swim. We only went into the pool for a little while. After 8pm Laura headed to Ronald Reagan Airport to pick Mike up from his trip to LA. We had the brownies when they returned.
