11/June/2015, Day 162. Thursday.
It's not only Grump who flips out for no (obviously) apparent reason. Tonight is Lola's turn to sulk.
The day started as weekdays usually do, with all of us getting up early, and then after breakfast Grump driving to work. At work he had to attend a meeting on a very irritating project, and unfortunately was told by his boss that this project will be his number one priority going forward. Phooey!
Grump came home before lunch, as he had an early afternoon dental appointment. For lunch Sweetie had made us all oatmeal. Yes, oatmeal! It wasn't as odd as it sounds, and was actually a fairly good lunch.
At the dentist, Grump received the unfortunate news that, no, they can't simply glue his tooth back together, (he had kept the broken piece), but that instead he would have to get a cap, or crown, on the damaged tooth. Double phooey! Grump has had a cap put on a tooth before, and had a root canal, and of the two, he preferred the root canal. This capping experience was no different than his other one, namely, painful, long, and expensive. ($780.00 went straight to our besieged American Express credit card.) He didn't get home from the dentist until after two hours.
Arriving home, he was met at the door by Sweetie with tears in her eyes. It seems she had made a hand gesture of some sort, (no, not "flipping the bird"!), which had deeply offended Lola, who was now hiding in her room upstairs. Triple phooey! They discussed what to do, and it was decided that Grump should take Kuya to his Mathnasium lesson, while Sweetie stayed home with Dodong, (who was sleeping).
So now it is evening, and time for bed. Lola has yet to come out of her room. I assume she will have to sometime tomorrow, and once she does, it will be interesting to see what sort of mood she is in.
Goodnight all!
