Hello Alessa,

Counting and ABCs? Wonderful!! My fear was when my daughter had to learn the multiplication table. I remember how tough it was for me. Well, my wife took on that task and she was proficient before I knew it. When my daughter was learning how to ride a bike, it was my wife who had the patience and perseverance to teach her to do it. Yeah, falling down and getting hurt a bit was part of the lesson. But, when my wife insisted she learn. It got done. Me, I always thought it might take longer or she might not learn at all. She still hasn’t learned to tie her shoes laces because I always bought the strap on shoes or ones with stretch straps or Velcro. I did not do her any good by doing that. Somethings just have to push thru. It can be a lot of work.

Anyway, happy to hear you got nursery lined up. It should give you a little time for whatever else you need to do during the day. I still remember my first day. 4 years old, I cried when my mom left me alone at school. But after the first day, it got a lot easier. Hope all goes well. Take good care of yourself and the family.

Went to a friends house to play Mah Jong. Afterwards, went out side to the car and saw someone had hit the car in the left rear quarter panel. I expected it was a hit and run. But, there was a police accident report on the windshield. If it were just up to me, I would have only liability which is cheaper than having collision on top of the liability. Anyway, collision paid for the damages. The other party took full blame of the accident (since the car was parked and no one was inside). The insurance adjuster was very nice and really understood what it would take to repair the car. So, I got a good estimate. I have decided to repair the damage myself. So, the money covers the 1 brake light assembly (damaged in accident) replacement along with 2 new headlight assembly (not damaged in accident) and the Bondo and primer and color paint and gloss coat. Just waiting for Amazon to deliver the parts and paints. I have pushed out the dent. Bondo on the surface and sanded it down. Will prime and wait for the paint to come. Won’t look like new but will look better. Ten year old car. Recently had a state inspection done on it. Needed new tires, front sway bar links and rear brake rotors and pads. (Bought online which was way cheaper than brick and mortar stores) All for less than the repair estimate. Which made me happy. Insurance paid me the estimate already. If I did not have collision then would have to wait for the other party’s insurance to pay for the damages. That is if they pay. I have seen my brother in law get into an accident and get no money for damages. Insurance just refused to pay. After that accident, my wife insisted we get collision insurance. Glad we did. We also pay for road side assistance which I have used about three times already for tows.

Oh, forgot to mention that we require GFCI protection circuits on dishwashers and most major appliances that use water.
