This afternoon into the evening Leanna attended a birthday party for Jerry's younger daughter, Lexie.  She got to play with Mia as well, and although she was grouchy, she reports she had a good time.  Tom went too and worked on his van some while he was there.  They didn't get home until about 8 at night.  I read Leanna two chapters of Alice: Through the Looking Glass and What she Found There tonight.  Leanna did some reading on her own today as well. 
Mom came over and talked to me this afternoon, and actually listened to me for the first time in a while.  I got a lot of cleaning done today, both with her help and on my own.  Tons of laundry and 2 loads of dishes plus cleaning up the mess of coats and winter gear, sweeping out the floor underneath the stroller and alongside the stairs and just general living room cleaning.  I've got some schoolwork ready for tomorrow and I gave Leanna and Jacob a bath tonight.  I'm feeling very organized, which is nice.  But I do have to get up early to get to the bank and call UGI so we don't lose heat tomorrow!
