Another Week, Another Visitor

 It was definitely a huge bummer for Cal to have his back window smashed in last weekend.  The nice part for us, however, was that he decided to return home to fix it.  Thus, we got to spend a rare three days with him this week.  He worked from home during the day and I tried not to bother him too much during that time period.  Thankfully, it was a slower than normal week for him, so I did get to see him during lunch and at other times of the day.  He took advantage of any breaks he had to walk around our neighborhood.  The weather didn't cooperate today, but Monday and Tuesday were nice days for outside activities.

Cal spent part of Monday evening at the Lamles visiting Winston.  He told Grandma Jane that Winston cried when he saw him.  I believe that.  I secretly hoped he would bring him home for awhile, no such luck.  Once Cal returned and we got back from Cameron's tennis match, we all watched the movie "Get Out."  I couldn't believe that Cal had never seen it.  It was just as creepy as I had remembered it being, and Cal really liked it.

Tuesday after work, Cal ate dinner with Grandma and Grandpa before taking a long walk.  Once he got home, he asked if anyone wanted to watch the movie "Us."  It had been directed by the same person who filmed Get Out.  We had never seen it, so Cam, Doug and I were all in for another movie night.  Soon, the four of us were all creeped out by it.  The plot was definitely different than any other scary movie that we had watched before.  It left us feeling a little nervous when it was all over and none of us wanted to check for families standing in our driveway afterward.  

Today, Cal had to leave shortly after dinner.  He had to work on site tomorrow and Friday.  His car still wasn't fixed, but we told him to take the Civic and we would bring the CRV to him when we all met Grandpa Heinisch in the suburbs on Sunday.  Before Cal left, Grandma and Grandpa brought up dinner for him and then they played Rummikub.  They really enjoyed it and we were all sad to see Cal leave afterward.  Thankfully, I know he'll be back again when he gets a chance and we will get to see him this weekend.  It was fun having he and Brett home these past two weeks.  I love visiting with my adult children and am glad that they are all doing well.
