It is a truth universally accepted...

No swimming for Anastasia today. She has major end of the year exams. All the moms hate the teacher because she is so hard. Universal complaint in third grade I guess. (Another universal thing is making your kid say thank you. Saw that in action today in the school parking lot. No translation is needed for "Now, what do you say?) In the morning, Anna and I went for coffee and to the butcher. On the way back we stopped to pick mushrooms. I am having them tomorrow for lunch. Wish me luck...
