Monday is one of the days of the week that Thomas is able to be a swim practice. There is no league, but they are able to practice twice a week for five weeks. He wanted to ride his bike to practice this morning, which means getting up even a little earlier than normal.
For the most part, our house is pretty well picked up after hosting so many people this weekend. As the swim practices was literally the only thing on our calendar, I was looking forward to a pretty relaxing day, even if it was starting earlier than I prefer for summer wake-ups. I opened the door to our garage to recycle a bottle, when I thought I saw something move out of the corner of my eye as I was closing the door. I opened the door again, and sticking its head around the corner staring at me was a young raccoon. Yikes! I quickly opened the overhead door, then shut the door to the house so it understood it was not invited inside. I opened a few minutes later, and it was nowhere to be seen. Andrew checked the garage when he got up and said we were really lucky it didn't do more damage. We will have to be very conscientious about making sure the overhead door is down. It was quite a surprise on this Monday morning!
