Day 235

Today we spent a few hours de-stickering Wally's van to get it ready for sale.


As we picked and peeled, Wally decided to let the boys play inside the van. Bad move. They started fighting over the window controls. Alex was pressing the button on one door to get the window to go down, and the Ryan was using the master controls on the drivers door to bring it back up. Suddenly the whole van shut down and Wally couldn't even get it started anymore. Not really what you want to happen the day before it goes up for sale. He was really pissed and kicked the kids out to their rooms. Ryan never really sees Wally mad so he was a bit worried as to how much trouble he was in. I went inside with them while Wally tried to fix the car and Ryan asked me with great worry "Am I going to jail?" I reassured him that he would not but that maybe he should do something nice for Dad to show him that he was sorry. So he ended up making him a card with an apology and a picture inside. Thankfully all the van needed was a boost and it was good to go again.





After all the drama, I was out around the yard when I almost stepped on this guy. He's a Tomato Hornworm Caterpillar, and he is huge!
