I think I might have pushed it too hard in yoga because for the rest of the day I just dragged. For example, at one point I dumped all the laundry on the floor in the girls room with every intention of sorting and folding&#8230;and instead, I just sat there playing with and reading to the girls. I finally got around to the laundry at bedtime. Six hours later.<\/p>\n<p>In the interim, Abe came home and we did errands. We had what felt like social hour at the grocery store. We ran into Abe&#8217;s old friend, Abe&#8217;s first grade teacher, my visiting teacher, and the mother of some of the kids in Primary who gave talks last Sunday.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4107\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4107\" style=\"width: 559px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/jul3pic4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4107\" alt=\"Blueberries outside of Sprouts.\" src=\"http:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/jul3pic4.jpg\" width=\"559\" height=\"745\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4107\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Blueberries outside of Sprouts.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4108\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4108\" style=\"width: 591px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/jul3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4108\" alt=\"The girls rode this ancient merry-go-round outside of Rite Aid for a quarter.

But I pointed out the girls had eaten a ton of raw snap peas before our errands, and they&#8217;d had a ton of berries and crackers on our outing. I couldn&#8217;t picture them eating much more substantial food, plus I couldn&#8217;t wait for s&#8217;mores. We were supposed to go camping tonight, and when the reservations didn&#8217;t work out, the one thing I was sad about was the prospect of missing out on s&#8217;mores.
