Day #5216 (Wed., Apr. 17, 2024) – “The One And Only Ruby”

Bobby was home sick today, but Katie went to school.

I picked Katie up after school today, and we stopped off at the library to get an audible CD book for Bobby entitled “The One And Only Ruby” (see photo to the right). He needs it for his homework.

Katie and I then drove out to Starbucks for Daddy/Daughter Chat Day #12. Both of us got a drink and a sandwich this time. The cashier told us that the new Starbucks on Franklin Street plans to have meeting rooms so that students can do their homework together. Katie mentioned that she is looking forward to going to Courtney so that she can start “afresh”, even though she will miss her friends.

Katie told me that Amelia is going to take her to the “Cat Cafe” on Franklin Street before we leave for Courtenay. I was always going to take Katie there, and wished I had now. The scheduling system seemed to strange at the time. You had to purchase a drink, but could not take it in where the cats were. You had a specific time to be there and had to leave after that. You could not go and pat a cat, but had to wait for the cat to come to you. Stuff like that…
