Since the pandemic started I haven't seem much of those two nice brothers who live across the street in the cul de sac. They have been at home trying to learn on ZOOM and their father has been working from home all this time, so he is always there and can drive them wherever. But yesterday he had to drive into his office in Los Angeles for the first time. I had to ask if he remembered how to get there! In the past he took the train from Fullerton and then a bus to his office place. So, yesterday the boys needed a driver. They go to different schools now - Immanuel is in middle school and Julian still goes to grade school. I drove Immanuel to school after his dad had delivered Julian to his school. Then in the afternoon I picked up Julian and we went out for ice cream. Of course, he had Cookie Monster. However the blue color really turns me off so I had my favorite Razzmania - raspberries and chocolate chunks in a vanilla base. We came back to my house, but I don't know how he could access my Internet, so we walked over to his house where he played computer games and I read stuff on my cell phone. They have been renovating their house and have the loveliest pale cedar "siding" in the living/dining room and it is laid diagonally. Looks so clean and "modern". The work is not quite finished and the refrigerator is still in the middle of the room, but they are almost ready to get back to normal. We have three houses in the neighborhood being remodeled and it is taking forever for all of them. Delays in appliances, shortage of lumber and wall board, slow delivery of materials all around. I don't know how they all manage with the disorganization. I live in great disorder with piles of everything, but I don't have to put up with the dust and tools and noise and just always having others in my house. However does Mr. John get any work done? Mrs. John is a nurse and has worked through it all. Anyway, I loved seeing the boys, they are so polite and well behaved. And so TALL now. Kids grow up very fast.
