Officially summer now

Our first week day with no school. We had to change out of our PJs to take DS2 to his karate class at 5 PM. They did puzzles this morning, played and argued this afternoon. Watched Rocky and Bullwinkle some.

DS2 then messed around with the Pingu and Bob the Builder websites, then we came across the Art Attack site on the Hit Entertainment site and it was all over. DS2 had to make a newspaper dog. Or rather, I was required to do 3/4ths of the work in rolling paper and taping and such, then we both glued strips of paper towel on. It had to go outside to dry (95 degree dry heat is good for something) and now he is painting it in multi-color spots. To say it is even odder than the one on the website is an understatement.

I started a new story today. I seem to be stuck in meeting the characters and they're info-dumping right and left, but I promise they'll be going out to sneak around in the woods soon. I'll try to work it into the story a bit better to develop the characters, but that's later. It's about 3500 words already.
