A Wheeljack Story ...

Photo-A-Day #02768 Finally Wheeljack is getting his own story. They've got Wheeljack by himself rebuilding what will ultimately be Autobot City in Chicago in the current storyline. He's holed up by himself in this big location. Or is someone or other someone's there with him. He's known as the mad scientist of the Autobots and in this issue he meets a real mad scientist, Dr. Henri Arkaville, a future villain who has it out for the Transformers. Wheeljack is called in to help save the life of new Autobot, Shredhead in this issue as well. A lot of story was in this issue.

First Watch, Did Not Impress ...

Photo-A-Day #02767 This morning we took the kids to First Watch for breakfast. They were not impressed. The place was really loud, they didn't quite enjoy their meals and that made for a rather poor experience. While we were there though we talked about the things that we'd like to watch together (movies) before Eva goes off to college. We settled on watching Stand By Me as the first of a series of movies we'll watch over the next few weeks.  I worked at The Pretzel factory today until closing. Then I ran a bunch of pretzels over to America's Best Defense. I had put out a call earlier in the week for people who might want a delivery of pretzels. Sensei Howard replied and I got him on the list for tonight. Last night I went to the North Attleboro Fire Station and they practically tackled me for them. Both nights someone did not pick up their 2 Good 2 Go order so I had multiple bags of pretzels to share.  When I got home we watched Stand By Me. I think both kids really en...

Dorm Pizza Storage Solution ...

Photo-A-Day #02766 I was on Tik Tok the other day and saw an ad for the Pizza Pack. this is a way to store multiple slices of pizza for easy reheating and the storage container won't take up a ton of room like a regular pizza box. I got one for us and one for Eva to take to college. Hope it works well.

Empty Your Backpack ...

Photo-A-Day #02765 I've been thinking of a book to get Eva to send with them to college. There is this guy on Tik Tok and I really enjoy listening to his stories. He wrote a book called Empty your backpack and so I ordered it for Eva. I plan to read through it before giving it to them with a little note from me. I hope that Eva enjoys reading Sam's stories and is able to take a little wisdom from them.

Picking Up Lexi ...

Photo-A-Day #02764 Today Eva and I went and picked up Lexi for Auntie Tara. Tara's plane was delayed and Lexi needed to be picked up from daycare. So we went over and got her and than brought her home to hang out with us. after a brief period of adjustment she settled right in and enjoyed hanging out with us on the couch.

Eva is Home ...

Photo-A-Day #02763 Eva is back after 7 weeks on Cape Cod. There they were a teaching assistant at The Children's School of Science. The classes that they helped with were Film Photography (2 sessions), Microbiology (with auntie Tara) and Biological illustration. These were some great courses for Eva's last year as a TA. This Summer Eva had a lot of time with family and friends but we are glad that Eva is back for a few weeks before college. I know that Eva's cat, James is very happy with Eva's return.

Not The Worst Employee ...

Photo-A-Day #02762 I saw this pin online that says "Not The Worst Employee". I thought it was really funny so I picked it up and pt it on my pretzel factory hat to see how long it would take for my boss to notice. He noticed towards the end of the shift and started laughing. I explained that I had put it there just to see when he'd notice and that it was really for my other job. I love working at the Pretzel Factory and am not as in love with my full time job. But, I'm not the worst employee there.
