School Looming

Wm really liked COSI camp! But, he did not enjoy the overnight. He said it was boring and he wished he hadn't stayed for it. His camp BFF left about 9pm, and then it was all downhill. But, he had a great time during the day! And we had a great weekend!

Flip had a playdate with Lily, the dog that Mimi is dog sitting. Lily is an Alpha and Flip is happily a Beta, so they got along great! They had a second playdate on Sunday, but Flip was too focused on destroying his new squeaker ball and Lily was annoyed she was being ignored (been there, Lily!)

I took an hour and a half long walk with Suzanne around Antrim, which was gorgeous! We went and got the last of Wm's school supplies, so he is ready to go! And we had a family movie night and watched Kong: Skull Island (which was NOT great cinema). Basically, we hung out, did fun stuff, took some naps, and had a blast. Oh, Flip also got his monthly bath and was NOT a fan. But, even more upset was Schroeder. Flip usually tears around like a meth-ed out maniac while he's wet. Schroeder was NOT liking that. He mostly sat, hugely puffed, growling and growling. So, everyone had an exciting time!

I got Flip an orthopedic memory foam mattress for his crate because he failed his Freedom Test (Day 1: chewed up my lambskin rug, Day 2: chewed up my yoga mat, Day 3: back in crate). He actually seems more content in his crate. I think being out alone in the empty house makes him anxious...hence, the chewing. Wm decided to test out the new mat and gave it the thumbs up! But, Flip did NOT like someone else invading his den!! He whined and pawed that the crate until Wm got out. Wm actually fit quite nicely in there:

Flip = NOT AMUSED

Wm: early morning, after he said he's ugly without glasses. 

Wm also said yesterday that he wishes he was Asian because Asian people are better at everything. Wm is the next Rachel Dolezal.  He goes on Thursday to get his school pictures, school ID, school laptop, and placement testing. Then, he starts school next Thursday!!
