Enjoying Tristan :)

We are enjoying our time with Tristan . He and I have developed a sort of schedule, shower every other day (and yes, the outdoor hosing takes the place of a shower, also the jacuzzi but then he has to wash his hair). Every morning after he wakes up (late) Marvin fixes him breakfast, then is computer/smart phone time. Later he goes outside and waters all the plants, including the tomatoes, and fills the fountains, and even picks some weeds. After that it'll be lunch time, sometimes at home, sometimes out.
In the evening we go outside and he plays basketball, today we shoot balls together, I won 1, he won 1 and we tied the 3rd time :) At night, is back to computer/smart phone/TV, with breaks.
Every so often I call break time and he has to do something like jumping jacks, or wash his face and brush his teeth, or fold clothes or empty the dishwasher etc.


He basically doesn't want to go out much, but he goes with Marvin to the store or to the game place. And of course, we went on Saturday to Huntington Beach. That was a "fun" day. Sooo many people (500.000 were expected) so needless to say we never got very close to the beach or the pier. The plan was to have Norbert drive us in my car to the pier, and then we would call him to pick us up in a couple of hours because parking was all but impossible. In reality, PCH was virtually stopped -bumper to bumper- so we took side streets and everybody else had the same idea. Tristan enjoyed Norbert's driving but I was not as excited!!! They also had fun checking the girls, they both acted like teenagers.
After a long time we turned around and went back to his home and from there to Acapulco to dinner.

We were thinking of going to San Diego on Sunday, but Marvin was feeling pretty weak so we decided he wasn't quite ready for a long drive. But all in all he seems to be doing better

Tomorrow we are having the cement guy coming to lay the foundation for the shed, I also want to go buy some flowers. And then on Wednesday Sandy gets here! :)
