As usual for a weekend morning, Dad got up with me around 6:00 and we hung out together, trying to be relatively quiet so Mom could sleep. After my breakfast, we went to the grocery store — and I witnessed for the first time Dad getting in a verbal fight with a total stranger.
I’ll spare you the details, but after there was a disagreement over a parking spot at Whole Foods, this crazy woman starts yelling at Dad about having “no sense of awareness” (while she herself blocked two lanes of traffic). Then, they crossed paths in the store and she instigated another conversation during which Dad steamrolled her with logic. She ended by saying “I guess we’ll have to agree to disagree.” I think that means Dad won.
We then went to Dominick’s and then headed back home. I hung out with Mom and Dad until their friend Mike arrived at our house. He hung out with the three of us until he had to take off, around 2:30. Grandpa Yagan came over a couple hours later so Mom and Dad could go Christmas shopping!
Sunday was a whirlwind as we got everything ready for our long drive to Dow for Christmas with the Drostes. Mom ran some errands in the morning, but otherwise it was just Mom and Dad scurrying around the house, playing with me while also managing to cross things off their to-do lists. I think they were multi-tasking me! We left for Dow as soon as I finished my 7:00 pm bottle and I slept the whole way there.
