James started sanding the walls quite early this morning.  Stacy kept texting me from the bedroom to ask him to stop so Joshua could sleep a little longer before going to school.  I finally convinced him to stop and then he left to go paint at his mom's and I cleaned up the mess.  I started painting the primer coat and worked for a couple of hours before going to lunch with Cathi and Laura at Applebees.

Applebee's has a great soup and salad lunch special.  We all got the shrimp and spinach salad.  The dressing is delicious.  Laura says it's so good she could eat it on ice cream.  For dessert we each got hot fudge shooters.  We stayed and talked quite awhile after we were finished eating.  I needed some Cathi and Laura time.

Paul took Stacy to see the movie "Breaking Dawn" part 2.  I picked Michael up from school.  He said there was a lockdown at the school today because there was a shooting on Galveston & Washington street.  He was in the seminary building which is on Washington a block from Galveston.  The last we heard they had not caught the shooter. 

Michael lettered in cross country which means he has the possibility of being a 4 year letterman.  Dallin lettered also and was MVP.  Dallin also got a state championship ring to wear.

Kevin is here visiting.  It was nice to see him.  He and Bremen come over to play with Joshua.

The Hostess workers were going to strike so Hostess closed their doors.  No more twinkies, ding dongs, or cupcakes.
