French Project? Pfft...

French Project? Pfft…

On Monday le Thomas and I were assigned a French project, so we decided to meet up after school. But when we discovered that the pool was 71 degrees, well, we got a little distracted.

We invited Colin and Zeus to swim with us, but Zeus was more interested in drinking the water than swimming in it…

I don't think he likes the pool very much...

So, after doing a couple cartwheels and various other gymnastics to dry off…

We walked to the corner store and FINALLY found some banana popsicles!

And while we were there we saw some Bristol boards which reminded us that we had a French project to do. Sadly, after we returned to le Thomas’s house, it was time for me to go home…

However, Monday was not entirely unproductive, because we are adding two new things to the bucket list:

28. Master cartwheels, round offs, handsprings, walkovers, and handstands by the end of the summer.

29. Teach Zeus not to bark anymore when le Bauer arrives.

The next day, I met up with le Thomas again to finish our French project. It took a total of about eight minutes, so we went for another swim. (It was 74 degrees!) This time, we decided to try and accomplish something from our bucket list. So we went for number eight, do a flip into a pool.

As you can clearly tell, we may need a little bit more practice… So that doesn’t count.

On Wednesday, I bet you can guess what happened. I went to visit le Thomas once again. This time, she had all her clothes spread out on her living room floor and needed help sorting through them. She had already started by the time I arrived because I was distracted by a crow…

And a robin…

And some lilacs.

And then when I got there I got distracted by all her pretty clothes, and a zipper I found in her basement, so we went outside to take pictures.

And then we wasted so much time doing that that it got dark and I had to go home.

It’s a wonder we barely finished our French project in time...
