Day 39 and 40, Thursday and Friday - Love Day
Hey all! It's Adrianna.
Hey all! It's Adrianna.
I finished my Thursday night work without incident. A typical day, catching ghosts and stealing some plants. Jules earned $1903 from the consignment shop and I congratulated him, but he brushed it off.
He was feeling very loving though. Appropriate, considering it was Love Day.
He even made me breakfast. So sweet!
Since the kids had the day off from school, I told them they could go to the festival after doing their homework.
I think that was the fastest they've ever done their homework. Off they went on their magic brooms.
Ricky was excited to show off the face painting he had done. Ashley, on the other hand, wouldn't talk about the festival much. The short, curt answers made me feel like she was a practicing teen. I really wasn't looking forward to the teen years with her.
Jules started practicing his magic again. He was doing that a lot lately. I asked him what the hurry was and he responded with 'no hurry.' Way to elaborate, Jules.
I went to check on the dogs and had to ooh and ah over everything Xeno did. He's so cute! All of the dogs seemed fine. Forrest seemed to be coming around a bit after Jenny passed away but he still slept a lot.
I found Ashley acting suspicious at the kitchen sink. When I asked her what she was doing, she replied with "Washing my hands mommy." Way too innocent.
Then I caught her doing the crazy sign at Ricky because he was talking to his imaginary friend. I shooed her away and encouraged Ricky to play with the new kid oven we had bought.
He made a plate of very nice vanilla muffins. I felt good about having encouraged him to cook. Then he offered his imaginary friend one of the muffins. I give! What's the harm in having an imaginary friend?
Then I saw Jules leaving without saying anything so I followed him.
Ashley was putting an envelope in the mailbox as I left the house. I told her to go inside and raced after Jules.
He seemed to be waiting around for something so I stayed in the shadows and watched. I checked with Ricky to make sure everything was okay and continued to wait.
Jules suddenly went outside and approached this stranger. He started calling his magic . . .
He turned the guy into a toad! No, seriously! He literally turned this stranger into an actual toad! I thought he was kidding when he told me stories of changing people. Then he just runs away, so I hurry home.
He beat me home and I found him rummaging in the dresser. He closed the dresser and, before I could say anything, asked where I had been.
I told him I had been checking on the dogs and collecting the gnomes. Collecting the gnomes? Why did I say that? I hope he doesn't try to verify the story because I was sure I saw a dog gnome out by the pond. Then he asked where Ashley was.
We couldn't find her. Ricky was asleep in the rocking chair but Ashley was nowhere to be found. Then there was a knock on the door. The police had brought her home.
The officer said there had been a report on her peeping into a couple's window. .
There was a report that she terrorized a woman at the library.
And a report that she tried to break into one of the library computers.
Then the officer said they had to chase her down on her broom.
As the officer recounted the story, I caught Ashley making an evil face. Maybe she really did do those things.
Jules lost it after the officer left and yelled at Ashley. She yelled back. I yelled at them to stop and sent Ashley to bed with no dinner. Jules stormed out of the house.
Ricky was already asleep and our yelling hadn't woken him. Thank goodness.
I went to get the rocking horse I had bought the kids out of the car and I swear I saw someone standing by the treehouse wearing a black mask.
But then he disappeared!
