TGIF! I love Fridays. I think they are my favorite day of the week. Today was a great day as well. But first we had to get through some tears and hurt feelings. Tweeners! Can't actually say teenager because she is only 11 (almost 12). The emotions in our household were all out of whack this evening. Not a little kid anymore but not a teen yet either. You remember how it was. You get bored when you play with your toys but then, what else is there to do. Throw in other kids (boys and girls), and hormones, and you are left with a mess. Ahhhh... those lovely years we all repress and can't really remember.
Trevor told her this is all just a small portion of her life that she won't really remember anyway. lol. I told her she is in a time where she is trying to "find" herself and formulate her own opinions. Trevor brought it to my attention that she probably doesn't know what formulate mean. That is true but I am not a dictionary and could not explain it. So I guess neither one of us really helped her. Now we are the parents who just don't understand. I guess we fit in will all the parents not. lol
Things then got better. (They always do with tweens because their emotions change with the wind.) And we met my mom, dad, Aunt Gloria, and Uncle Carl at the Weal Inn for dinner. Yes we took the kids to the bar. We can do that now that Michigan restaurants are smoke free. Woo Hoo!! That place has great fish. Not as good as the Cozy Inn up in Brimley. But nobody can beat fresh whitefish from Superior. And yes the Cozy Inn is another bar we take the kids too. What is with all these bars having great food???
When we got back home we settled in for the night and watched Night at the Museum 2. We just joined Netflix and this was the movie that arrived in our mailbox. I didn't want to join but when the place we always rent from went out-of-business what else was I to do? I think with Netflix we will more movies too. I do know if that is a good or bad thing...
